Lyrics Wait for You - The Mountain Goats

Wait for You

When it came time to wait for you
I took the bus to malibu
Found a cafe by the ocean
Watched the sky for signs
And a rainbow in the west
Wrapped its coils around the earth like a serpent
I felt like I was going to suffocate
But I knew this was not the day you would finally come my way
But I waited all the same
Watched the water through the window
And a rainbow in the west
Held its head beneath the waves and grew dimmer
Nothing anyone could do I suppose
