| You never gave a reason for leavin'
|
| Just packed your things and you said goodbye
|
| I guess you just got tired of believin'
|
| In the dreams of a dreamer such as I
|
| Usually I’m not left in this position
|
| Most of the time, it’s me who says goodbye
|
| You never dropped a hint that you’re goin'
|
| Naturally it came as a surprise
|
| Sittin' in a run-down dive in Austin
|
| Anticipatin' pain from losin' you
|
| Well it hasn’t hit me yet
|
| It’ll be here you can bet
|
| I’m sittin' here
|
| Waitin' on the blues
|
| I hate to get advice when I don’t ask it
|
| That’s what I’m gettin' here tonight
|
| The old man says 'cause I’m young I’m foolish
|
| Since he’s old I guess he must be right
|
| He said I should try to forget about you
|
| I know that’s not left for me to choose
|
| Who knows you might come back but until you do
|
| Guess I’ll sit here waitin' on the blues
|
| Sittin' in a run-down dive in Austin
|
| This old man’s tellin' me that I can’t lose
|
| But I guess he’s wrong
|
| 'cause I already lost you
|
| Oh I’m sittin' here
|
| Waitin' on the blues
|
| Sittin' in a run down dive in Austin
|
| You left me here with nothing left to lose
|
| Well this delayed misery
|
| You know it’s damn near killin' me
|
| I could spend a lifetime
|
| Waitin' on the blues.
|
| I could spend a lifetime
|
| Waitin' on the blues |
