I could never pretend that I don't love you
You could pretend that I'm your man
That's exactly the way that I want it
That's exactly the way that I am
And you call me in the mornin' with your troubles
Takin' it down town every night
I could never place the stars at night above ya
Got my hands in the ground and you know I'm right
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
It's a coffee stained Earth everytime it happens
Laugh it up honey it ain't that bad
And the afterthought rose to recongnition
Like every other coffin that I had
And you Buick broke down in Winamurke
You fall to your knees and you pray to the Lord
Make take a poke at the politicians
Nothin' happends in this burnt out town anymore
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
Woah-oh
Ooh-Woah-Oh
Woah-oh
Ooh-Woah-Oh
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 the river
Just a little itty-bitty grain of sand
And you know that I'm doomed to repeat this
With all the bad habits that I learned
But it's better than your five-earned fornication
And the dirty money that you've earned
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
You wait so long
