Waiting for the World Songtext

von Blue Rodeo

Last night was a triumph
Stayed up all night no one got hurt
Told me what this life is worth
Now didn't you girl

Every day's an endless stream
Of people losing track it seems
But you and I we make our dreams
In different worlds

Well I do know why you'd walk away
But I'm waiting down here anyway

Well I'm waiting for the world to change
Picking up myself again
And I'm falling still I wonder
Just whose stars am I living under now

Tell me about the way you came
To live so high above this game
But you and I we're drawn to flames
Now ain't it true

Well I do know why you'd walk away
But I'm waiting down here anyway

Well I'm waiting for the world to change
Picking up myself again
And I'm falling still I wonder
Just whose spell am I living under
Walking down the road awhile
From starting out to final mile
Falling still I wonder
Just whose stars am I living under now

Well I do know why you'd walk away
But I'm waiting down here anyway

Well I'm waiting for the world to change
Picking up myself again
And I'm falling still I wonder
Just whose spell am I living under
Walking down the road awhile
From starting out to final mile
Falling still I wonder
Just whose stars am I living under now
