Wait So Long

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I could never pretend that I don't love you You could pretend that I'm your man That's exactly the way that I want it That's exactly the way that I am And you call me in the mornin' with your troubles Takin' it down town every night I could never place the stars at night above ya Got my hands in the ground and you know I'm right [Chorus] You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long [Verse 2] It's a coffee stained Earth everytime it happens Laugh it up honey it ain't that bad And the afterthought rose to recongnition Like every other coffin that I had And you Buick broke down in Winamurke You fall to your knees and you pray to the Lord Make take a poke at the politicians Nothin' happends in this burnt out town anymore [Chorus] You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long [Bridge] Woah-oh Ooh-Woah-Oh Woah-oh Ooh-Woah-Oh [Verse 3] And your heart rolls on like a frozen freight train You know that I'll help you if I can But I'm just a raindrop in the river Just a little itty-bitty grain of sand And you know that I'm doomed to repeat this With all the bad habits that I learned But it's better than your five-earned fornication And the dirty money that you've earned [Chorus] You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long You wait so long
