Countless years are spent
Seeking to find
The so called perfect
Prince in disguise
Late night whispered
Comforting lies of
"This will be the year I meet him"
"Maybe this is the right guy, I should give him another chance"
Pretty words to soothe an aching soul
While omitting the truth
That the guy you're making excuses for
Is not the one you've been waiting for
And there shouldn't be a panicked rush
To meet the one you're meant to
Spend your life with
If your time is spent
Wrapped up in nothing more
Than the idea of meeting the perfect guy
There will be no time
To find what makes you
Happy
Then even if you do meet him
You won't really be ready
Because you forgot
To spend time
Looking for yourself
