A girl needs to be so lost in God a guy has to seek Him to find her.<br /> <br /> &quot;I claim you in the name of the Shadow Ninja.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I love you from the depths of my black soul.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I just fell in love with you all over again!&quot;

I'm waiting for a call
the seconds slowly fall
but still the line is silent
as seconds turn to minutes

Still waiting for the call
I'll say I'm good and all
but in the back of my mind
I'm looking for a rewind

Just waiting for that call
feel like an engine stalled
as I wonder what the hell!
Look, another minute fell

Was waiting for a call
my head against the wall
but somehow still I knew
'twas I who would call you

Yeah... my boyfriend isn't exactly the most reliable person when he says "I'll call you tomorrow."
