WAITED



WAITED

WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON

2019

WAITED FOR A BUS
THAT NEVER CAME
MAYBE THE SCHEDULE 
GOT RE-ARRANGED
BUT ALL I KNEW WAS
IT LEFT ME WALKING
DOWN THE ROAD ALONE

THE MOON ALREADY ON THE STAGE
THE STARS ALREADY TRYING TO SHINE
LIFE LEFT ME BEHIND
NOBODY OR NOTHING AROUND
THE CRASHING OF THE WAVES
THE ONLY SOUND

WAITED ALL DAY FOR SOMEONE
THAT NEVER CAME
NEVER SHOWED UP AT ALL
LIKE IT WAS JUST SOME KIND OF GAME
WELL THERE I WON BY DEFAULT
NOW I DON'T HAVE TO PLAY

WAITED FOR SOMETHING
I THOUGHT THAT I WAS DUE
WORKED SO HARD FOR IT
THE YEARS JUST FLEW
THEN IT CAME AND YOU SAW
ME SMILE
SO YOU TOOK IT ALL AWAY
I HAD TO LEAVE THEN
I COULDN'T STAY
LEFT ME ALONE
SEARCHING FOR A WAY
TO START AGAIN

NO QUARTER TO BE FREE
EVERY TIME I GET CLOSE
IT MOVES A LITTLE FARTHER AWAY
FROM ME
YOU MIGHT HEAR ME CURSING SOFTLY
OR YOU MIGHT NOT GET AN ANSWER
 AT ALL
THE TRANSFORMATIONS ALREADY TAKEN

SHOULDN'T HAVE WAITED
SHOULD OF GOT UP AND WENT
IN THESE EYES
THE STORIES THEY COULD TELL
IT HASN'T BEEN ALL WELL AND GOOD
HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN
YOU'VE DONE ALL YOU COULD
KEEP THIS GOING
DO YOU THINK I SHOULD

WAITED FOR AN ANSWER
OR A SIGN
ITS NOT COMING MAYBE
I GOT LEFT BEHIND
I'VE BEEN ALL THROUGH THIS
I'LL BE FINE.
