I won't talk, I won't breathe
I won't move 'til you finally see
That you belong with me

You might think I don't look
But deep inside, in the corner of my mind
I'm attached to you, mmm

I'm weak, it's true
Cause I'm afraid to know the answer
Do you want me too?
Cause my heart keeps falling faster

I've waited all my life
To cross this line
To the only thing that's true

So I will not hide, it's time to try
Anything to be with you
All my life I've waited
This is true

You don't know what you do
Everytime you walk into the room
I'm afraid to move

I'm weak, it's true
I'm just scared to know the ending
Do you see me too?
Do you even know you met me?

I've waited all my life
To cross this line
To the only thing that's true

So I will not hide, it's time to try
Anything to be with you
All my life I've waited
This is true

I know when I go
I'll be on my way to you
The way that's true...

I've waited all my life
To cross this line
To the only thing that's true

So I will not hide, it's time to try
Anything to be with you
All my life I've waited
This is true

    General Comment:I think this song is clearly about a love boy meets gril relationship. I feel like he is at least aquantices or even friends with the girl, because true love must be based on personality. However, he's never told her how he felt because he's "afraid of the ending", that she might reject him. In the song, though, he has finally gained the courage to admit to his feelings, because he now knows beyond doubt what he feels is true love

    General Comment:I loved this song... now I listen to it when I need a quiet song to hear. I love his voice in this song, how good he sounds when singing in falsetto in the chorus =)
    And YES, he DID NOT WRITE IT FOR/ABOUT ASHLEE!
    I do kind of relate to this song... but it depends on how you look at it. I truly never thought about it being religious actually... mainly because when I first heard it I was never a strong Christian or knew much about God or anything (before I went to camps), but now that I read it after seeing the comment about it possibly being religious, I can see it. ('I've waited all my life, to cross this line, to the only thing that's true'... I mean honestly, how many things in life are entirely true? It could be about... I dunno, first thing that pops into my head is how when you die, and this is coming from a Christian view so don't read on if you don't agree with Christianity or anything, you cross over to the gates of heaven, the cross that Jesus was crucified on on. That's what I think when I hear that line now...).

    But it's definitely a beautiful song. When it comes to a girl-guy view tho, I TOTALLY understand this song =) (I like my neighbour and he never notices me, barely said a word to me unless he 'had' too, aka when I volunteered where he did, and now he sits next to me in one of my classes and still doesn't seem to acknowledge my existence. I don't linger on anything, I'm not waiting for something pointless, but I don't want to like him, but I just can't help it because I see him every day. Sometimes I just wish he would at least acknowledge that I'm there... and that's just how I relate to the song).

    General Comment:Okay, get this: I hate pop, I'm into heavy metal and hard rock, and I find acoustics slightly boring, but THIS SONG IS AWESOME! You can really feel the emotion in his voice, and I'm not afraid to admit that Ryans got talent!

    General Comment:I think the meaning is pretty obvious.

    It's about a guy who is completely in love with this girl. He's nervous to tell her about his feelings, because he doesn't want to get hurt, and he feels like maybe it would be better just to never know. But he feels deep down that this is right and that he has to tell her, no matter what.

    It's so beautiful. I listened to this song on repeat for like, three days straight when I told a guy my feelings. That was a couple years ago. The feelings are still there though.
