As we walk together through the autumn, nearing winter
|
Through the dying leaves and trees we call our home and native land,
|
You say you don't believe a thing I say, I say you don't believe a thing
|
You say you can't believe how I don't understand
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
But I Know
|
That you will be waiting
|
Oh I know
|
That you will be waiting
|
Oh I know
|
You Will be waiting
|
Waiting there for me
|
|
You say you cannot live with me, you need your own identity
|
And now we air our laundry on national TV
|
And so you hate my arrogance, my smothering and sitting on the fence,
|
But I'm afraid of the hard permanence of letting you go free
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I'm so sick of fighting and that effigy you're lighting looks
|
An awful lot like whose name I just can't quite place
|
And though you say it's not supposed to be me or any entity
|
Still through the flames and smoke I see I recognize that face
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
And you were someone who would
|
Always tell me things I don't know,
|
And tell me where to go
|
But there I'll always go
|
Whether or not you're waiting
|
I don't care if you'll be waiting
|
But please say that you will be waiting there for me
|
|

You Will Be Waiting
