Waiting

She waited for the light to turn green on me and her

She waited for me to speak those three little words

I dragged out a promise that I'd never make up

She waited as long as she could, and now

I'm sittin' on the couch, whiskey in my hand

Staring out the window, for one more second chance

Hoping headlights come pouring round the bend

Waiting, waiting, waiting for her forgiving voice

To come across the phone

Saying, "Baby, wait up, I'm comin' home"

But in the sunrise I'm still all alone

Waiting, waiting, waiting

Yeah, she's runnin' like a river after a hard rain

She's rolling free like a tumbleweed

On a desert plain

I was the one she couldn't slow down

Aw, but look at me now

And I'm sittin' on the couch, whiskey in my hand

Staring out the window, for one more second chance

Hoping headlights come pouring round the bend

Waiting, waiting, waiting for her forgiving voice

To come across the phone

Saying, "Baby, wait up, I'm comin' home"

But in the sunrise I'm still all alone

Waiting, waiting, waiting

I know I should get in my truck

Chase that girl down the highway

'Cause there ain't no winnin' her back

Just sittin' on the couch, whiskey in my hand

Staring out the window, for one more second chance

Hoping headlights come pouring round the bend

Waiting, waiting, waiting for her forgiving voice

To come across the phone

Saying, "Baby, wait up, I'm comin' home"

'Cause in the sunrise I'll still be all alone

Waiting, waiting, waiting

Whoa-whoa

Waiting
