WAITING

 

I’m trading in all these ten-cent loves for a solitary spot in the sunlight  And I’m making this my one-stop reason to believe that I can go on  Many times I thought I’d found someone

Only to be surprised at this person that they really were

And the person that I am has always kept things on the run

But I swear I’ve changed my ways and now I’m just sitting in the sun

 

I’m sitting in the sun, waiting for my lover to come

Oh, when she comes

Oh, when she comes

 

I’m holding out, resting my eyes

All this straining and searching, I’m turning it inside

So many nights I sought to find someone

Only to be surprised at the kind of person I’d become

And the person that I am will never keep things on the run

Because I swear I’ve changed my ways and now I’m just sitting in the sun

 

I’m sitting in the sun, waiting for my lover to come

Oh, when she comes

Oh, when she comes.

 

Make myself the person I would want somebody else to love

Sit and watch the world go by in quiet contemplation of

Making this my one-stop reason, reason to believe I can go on

I can go on

I can go on

 

I’m trading in all these ten-cent loves for a solitary spot in the sunlight  And I’m making this my one-stop reason to believe that I can go on

I can go on
