Waiting For You

I left my porch light on above my doorstep
Hope it don't burn out before you get back
And I'm waiting for you to come on

Was born and bred with a well adjusted mindset
Even with it patience has its limits
So I'm trying my best to move on

Waiting for you to come on
You try to hold on till it's done
I've been restless so long
just waiting for you to come on

You try and pressure, mix it with restraint
but nothing happens so you lie in wait till it's done
Waiting for you to come on

The birds that sang at the start,
they've moved on to warmer shores
Now the coats are all buttoned
and it's cold on the floor
When will you ever get home?

Waiting for you to come on
You try and hold on till it's done
I've been absent so long
Waiting for you to come on


I wish I could just sleep away
the days still left to come
No mistaking, heart's not aching
till you're off the run

I think my porch light burned out on my doorstep
I could replace it, but I think you'll know where to go
waiting for you to come on

Waiting for you to come on
You try and hold on till it's done
I've been restless so long
just waiting for you to come on
I've been absent so long
waiting for you to come on
I've been lonely so long
just waiting for you to come on.
