Mr. Right?

People say I have to wait for the right one,
But how would I know when that person's gone?
How will I know when I never got the chance,
To grab his hand and go for a dance?

How will I know that he's Mr. Right,
When he disappears into the night?
He sails away with no clear direction,
With someone else to hold his affection.

How will he know that he makes me smile,
And hat it's plastered on my face for more than a while?
He's gone away with no idea in his head,
That in one way or another it was me that he misled.

That I'm the one with the hole in my heart,
The one who's lonely and falling apart.
Everything seems emptier when he's gone away,
As if nothing else will ever make my day.

How will I know he's all there is to me ,
When there's the whole word out there I have yet to see?
When memories are the only things I can hold,
When I feel all alone and the air grows cold.

But how do I know when to let go,
When holding on was all I've ever known?
How do I know he'll be there on the last page of my story,
That in my worst he'll never be sorry,
That he'll be there whenever I call,
And he'll stay with me through it all?
