Waiting for you to come home
Is like hoping that the clouds will sit still
I could waste away the day looking up,
And pray into the sky that they will
Waiting for you to come home
Is like hoping the guilty will confess
I could put all my faith in the system
But I will never settle for less
And oh,
I guess that one day I will learn
That oh,
I shouldn't be staring at the clock
But just in case you return,
I'll keep the door unlocked
And waiting for you to come home
Is like learning how to quit while you're ahead
I know I should get up and walk away
But I'll take my chances instead
And oh,
I guess that one day I will learn
That oh,
I shouldn't be staring at the clock
But just in case you return,
I'll keep the door
And oh,
I guess that one day I will learn
That oh,
I should be ready for the shock
But just in case you return,
I'll keep the door unlocked,
