Waiting on the world to change

it's the title of a song

by john mayer

he's waiting on the world to change

i dont wish for that much

i'm just waiting for one person to change

not the whole world

or is it?

you were waiting for his texts

i am waiting for yours

just because you waited a little longer for his texts

you sulked

what about me

i waited for 15 months

but its ok

i understand

and also

i could text you at all hours

if only i could

with him

you need to learn independence

perhaps its good for you

but you dont have to

if you were with me

sometimes i ask myself

why you dont give me a hell of a chance

when the choice is obvious

perhaps you haven't seen my good yet

and perhaps i will never have the chance to show it to you

but through it all

i came out with something

some things are not meant to be

i play sports

and in sports

we learn things about life

so often

we see a better team lost

or a weaker player won

that's what sports is all about

and that is also what the world is all about

certain things

are just not meant to be

no matter how good you are

i said

i am waiting for you to change your mind and take a look at me

but the world is full of things like that

so

does that also mean

that i'm waiting for the world to change?
