The Purgatory Line |
This ain’t exactly hell. |
It sure as hell ain’t heaven. |
I love you like the dickens and I miss you like the Devil. |
I guess I’ll do my time waitin’in this purgatory line. |
Angels here are wearin’fancy new perfume, |
and all the bread’s unleavened. |
Well I guess it’ll have to do till I find you. |
I don’t know what I’m doin’here or why |
I’m waitin’in this purgatory line. |
I ain’t exactly up. |
I ain’t gone too far down. |
I’m lookin’for some answers and there ain’t no one around. |
I guess I’ll lose my mind waitin’in this purgatory line. |
If Jesus walked on water then where’d he get them shoes? |
It just keeps gettin’harder to lose these walkin’blues. |
I want you to come and take me home for a while. |
Save me from this purgatory line. |
Sometimes I can laugh. |
Other times I cry. |
It ain’t exactly funny. |
My feet are both on fire. |
I guess they’ll just burn for a while waitin’in this purgatory line. |
Lovin’you is so easy, but waitin’here just ain’t. |
I know I can be patient, but please don’t hesitate to cross my mind. |
That’s all I’ve got for a while. |
Waitin’in this purgatory line. |
