The Waiting

Lonely for affection
Only want what's authentic
So I wait only for you
Though I'm perceived as eccentric 

Lonely and longing
For the touch of a man
No longer willing to settle
So I'll wait as long as I can

Lord, help me through these days
And each long, lonely night
I have faith in your word
That everything will be alright

Onward I go
Another day of waiting
Yet I'm one day closer
To the goal I'm anticipating
