Lyrics

WAITING

You should’ve seen me just yesterday
With an old torn ticket and an old suitcase
Well I’m taking off, leaving here, going off
Gonna go and find myself a new home

Call my old friends and call Old Gray
And tell them I’m coming, tell ‘em I’m leaving today
Well I’m getting on, moving off
Never knew why it took me oh so long to get gone

You said you loved me, so I found a ride
And when I saw you, you seemed awfully surprised
And then you
Brushed me off without asking me why
I’d come

I confess

I’d been searching for 14 years
I sat there waiting from the corner of my mind
And I was looking for you, not ever knowing
I wasted all that time
Thinking you were mine
Waiting for you to show

You to show

Now I’ve been trying, been holding on
And it’s all gotten better now that I’ve moved on
And it’s a new life, new times, new roads to seek
To go and go to try to find

So if that cold rain starts bringing you down
If you ever get so lonely and there’s no one around
Well just know that I’d be with you
But I did what you wanted me to do

You said you loved me a million old times
But when I saw you, I could see it in those eyes
It’s like Father Time resurrected your old shoelace

I confess

I’d been searching for 14 years
I sat there waiting from the corner of my mind
And I was looking for you, not ever knowing
I wasted all that time
Thinking you were mine
Waiting for you to show

You to show

I’d been searching for 14 years
I sat there waiting from the corner of my mind
And I was—

I’d been searching for 14 years
I sat there waiting from the corner of my mind
And I was looking for you, not ever knowing
I wasted all that time
Thinking you were mine
Waiting for you to show

Wasted all that time
Thinking you were mine
Waiting for you to show

You to show
