I'll Be Waiting

When you've smoked your last cigarette

And the lights go out

And you're pacin' around in your room

Thinkin' of things you shouldn't think about

And there's no one to hold your hand

Help you figure it out

And you think nobody understands

No one has been where you are now

I'll be waiting when you are on your own

Yes, I'll be waiting when you are far from home

When nothing's sacred you'll never be alone

No, I'll be waitin' here

When you're down to your last bit of hope

Feel like breakin' apart

And you swear that nobody else

Could ever love you the way that you are

I'll be waiting when you are on your own

Yes, I'll be waiting when you are far from home

When nothing's sacred you'll never be alone

No, I'll be waitin' here

When the day is short and the night is long

And your pillow feels like the hardest stone

When your head is hot and your heart is cold

You are not alone, you are not alone, no

I'll be waiting when you are on your own

Yes, I'll be waiting when you are far from home

When nothing's sacred you'll never be alone

No, I'll be waitin' here

I'll be waitin' here

I'll be waitin' here
