Settle

You say you're waiting
Do you know who for?
And you may soon find
Your faith won't restore

And if you met him
Would you even know?
I'm sure with time
Our feelings could grow

You say you need magic
Well we all do in the end
If you're not enchanted
You could always pretend

I could make you happy
Though maybe not the most you could be
I'm here and now
So settle for me

Did one get away
Or never but yearning?
Have you seen him at all?
Are there dreams of returning?

Did you see too many
Or was it too few?
Are you still search
Or are you through?

You say you need magic
A spark of some kind
I hate to tell you
Your friend is not time

I can make you happy
Though maybe not the most you could be
We're not getting younger
So settle for me

You could settle for me
Come settle for me
Will you settle for me
Just settle for me
Come and settle for me
For me, come settle for me

Alone at night
Are you counting on fate?
I'll be here awhile
If you decide not to wait

I may not be the best
You may live with regret
Still there's a chance
That I'm the best you will get

You say you need magic
That's what everyone will say
And if there's no one better
I might be the one that got away

I could make you happy
Though maybe not the most you could be
I'm here and now
So settle for me

I can make you happy
Though maybe not the most you could be
We're not getting younger
So settle for me

You could settle for me
Come settle for me
Will you settle for me
Just settle for me
Come and settle for me
For me, come settle for me
