Him:
Killing time is easier than looking for love
Since all my mates are happy with their hookups
It seems to be a waste of time
Having to look back and forth for this transient object
That always slips from my fingers
It's a never–ending chase and it's making me sick
God knows how long I have to stand for this
Still, I'm clinging to that slim chance
That somewhere out there she's looking for me
And that she would be the one, I hope.
Her:
This whole thing is tearing me apart
And it's only getting worse
What with all these people
Trying to have their way with me
As if they're entitled to do what they want
It's sickening and demoralizing
For them to want you
Not for who you are but who they want you to be
It's just crazy and it's tiring
But I'm not giving up
Because one day he will walk into my life
And he will give me happiness like never before
I hope he'll be the one I'm looking for.
