Waiting

She waited for the light to turn green on me and her

She waited for me to speak those three little words

I dragged out a promise that I never made good

She waited as long as she could

And now I'm sitting on the couch

Whiskey in my hand

Staring out the window

For one more second chance

Hoping headlights

Come pouring 'round the bend

Waiting waiting waiting

For her forgiving voice

To come across the phone

Saying baby wait

Up I'm coming home

But in the sunrise

I'm still all alone

Waiting waiting waiting

Yeah she's running like a river after a hard rain

She's rolling free like a tumbleweed on a desert plain

I was the one she couldn't slow down

Aw but look at me now

Just sitting on the couch

Whiskey in my hand

Staring out the window

For one more second chance

Hoping headlights

Come pouring 'round the bend

Waiting waiting waiting

For her forgiving voice

To come across the phone

Saying baby wait

Up I'm coming home

But in the sunrise

I'm still all alone

Waiting waiting waiting

I know I should get in my truck

Chase that girl down the highway

Cause there ain't no winning her back

Just sitting on the couch

Whiskey in my hand

Staring out the window

For one more second chance

Hoping headlights

Come pouring 'round the bend

Waiting waiting waiting

For her forgiving voice

To come across the phone

Saying baby wait

Up I'm coming home

But in the sunrise

I'm still all alone

Waiting waiting waiting

Whoa

I'm still waiting
