Wait So Long

I could never pretend that I don't love you
You could never pretend that I'm your man
Thats exactly the way that I want it
Thats exactly the way that I am
And you'll call me in the mornin with your troubles
Takin it downtown every night
I could never place the stars at night above ya
Got my hands on the ground and you know I'm right

You wait so long

Its a coffe stain on earth every time it happens
Laugh it up honey it ain't that bad
And the after thought rose to recognition
Like eery other coffin that I had
Then your feelin broke down in winamuck

You fall to your knees and you pray to the lord
Then you take a poke at the politicians
Nothing happens in this burnt out town anymore

You wait so long

And your heart rolls on like a frozen freight train
You know that I'll help you if I can
But I'm just a raindrop in a river
Just an itty bitty grain of sand
And you know that I'm doom to repeat this
With all the bad habits that I learned
But its better than your fiber fornication
And all the dirty money that you earned

You wait so long
