I'll Be Waiting |
I sat on the doorstep |
And watched her slowly walk away |
She wasn’t sad, she wasn’t angry |
Does she ever hear a word I say? |
I was only a dumb kid |
Playing parts I’d studied for a day |
But I’m no actor |
Could never say a line to save my life |
So what’s the matter with indifference? |
It’s just an easy way to kill the pain |
You can’t be crying when you’re travelling |
Even when you know you’ve missed the train |
So take your time, don’t you worry |
I’ll be waiting, you know I’ll be waiting |
Don’t want to be a ploughboy |
Seen my father break his back that way |
I’m not a dreamer, I’m a builder |
At least that’s what the voices say |
I can’t let love spoil my chances |
Can’t let a girl stand in my way |
So it’s the best thing to tell |
Her I’m just leaving for a day |
And what’s so wrong about deception |
Maybe I could change my mind and stay |
You can’t be crying, while your travelling |
It won’t be me that’s crying anyway |
