She'll Wait

Carson Henley


Gena lies awake in bed
Thoughts keep sleep away in her head
Tears they bring instead
Dreaming ‘bout the love once had
Wondering if she’ll ever cure this sadness
Oh it’s such a mess

He’s the only one, who broke them down
No she needs someone, to pick her off the ground

She’ll wait to find someone to change her mind
She’ll wait a long time
Someone who treats her right, every night
Who can bring the walls down, inside

She puts them up to hide the world
To hide the hurt that lives inside the girl
Inside the little girl
Trust is something hard to have
When you have been let down like she has
In her past

He’s the only one, that she let in
Now she’s off and gone, and closed the door again

She’ll wait to find someone to change her mind
She’ll wait a long time
Someone who treats her right, every night
Who can bring the walls down, inside

(bring them down)
Ya gotta bring ‘um down
(bring them down)
If you’re ever gonna move on
(bring them down)
Just go ahead and let them down
(bring them down)
Close your eyes and try to be strong

She’ll wait to find someone to change her mind
She’ll wait a long time
Someone who treats her right, every night
Who can bring the walls down
Who can bring the walls down, inside
