I know you've been hurt before- I know it's all true
You've spent your whole life looking for someone who'll listen to you
And I've watched you run away- I've felt your pain
Always looking for warmth and shelter, Always left out in the rain

So when will you finally believe that you're wasting your time?
That what's at the top of the heap ain't worth the climb?
It's all still true you know: at the end of the line,
There's only one person waiting there, and He's got plenty of time

Cause there's no place to go where you can't hear the song
The world beats with love for your soul, you can't shut it out for long
And just round the corner, beyond the next bend
You've got a friend.

So hang up the phone, girl- try to stay in control
Keep looking for something big enough to fill up the hole
But you know that there's just one thing that will ever do
And when you're ready to come back home, He'll be waiting for you
