lyrics

I’ll be waiting in the wings for you
You can find me where you always do
I’ll be flying where our hearts are true
Where I’m never feeling bad or blue

I’ll be waiting in the dying gloom
In that tiny little downstairs room
I’ll wait, you’ll never come too soon
Drinking light from the distant moon

(Ch)
Nothing matters as much as love
Sifting softly from above
I’d like to have my bull eaten by your dove
A real newly-fashioned kind of love

See, never let it slip your mind
That, though you’ll decide, my heart
I’ll be sippin’ on my favorite wine,
“Homemade hooch” plays the strangest part

(Ch)

it’s not like I’m gonna cry…

I’ll be waiting in the wings for you
You can find me where you always do
I’ll be flying where our hearts are true
Where I’m never feeling bad or blue

I’ll be waiting in the dying gloom
In that tiny little downstairs room
I’ll wait, you’ll never come too soon
Drinking light from the distant moon

(Ch)
