How long have I been standing here my friend
Has it been so long
I’ve been spreading myself so thin
And I’ve been so wrong
I wanna be the one you run to
And I wanna be your only one
I wanna be the one you turn to
And I wanna be the one
Why did all the good times turn to sin
And has it been so long
I’ve been standing here in my footprints
And I am so wrong
You shine on me all the good times with you
Where all the smiles belong
You trust in me to save the last tear for you
Cause I’ve been so wrong
Hey now its been so long
Hey hey won’t you believe in me
Hey now I’ve come so far
How now won’t you believe in me
Frustrations...My aberrance
My time...In my life
I can’t be what you see in me
I can’t be
Has it been so long
I’ve been spreading myself so thin
And I’ve been so wrong
And I wanna be your only one
I wanna be the one you turn to
And I wanna be the one
And has it been so long
I’ve been standing here in my footprints
And I am so wrong
Where all the smiles belong
You trust in me to save the last tear for you
Cause I’ve been so wrong
Hey hey won’t you believe in me
Hey now I’ve come so far
How now won’t you believe in me
My time...In my life
I can’t be what you see in me
I can’t be

IMO this song is about loving someone, and wanting them all to yourself. Then coming to the realization that they don’t share the same feelings, and you have to let them go.
i believe that is correct AnAngleWithA45.. i can so relate to this song...
anyways still a damn good song
Great song, both lyrically and musically. It seems like a conversation of some sort...
I think that it's saying to someone that they can come to you when they have problems. That's what i think this line means: I wanna be the one you turn to
the singer wants his lover all for himself "i want to be the only one you run to"
but he realizes that hes not what she wants "i cant be what you see in me" plus the possibility in anangle's comment about the lover not feeling the same way about wanting him to be the only person she runs to.
lol hi david
