The Long Wait Lyrics by Brightboy

2007

I wake up at eight every single day
\nI draw the curtains aside to greet a new dawn with a smile
\nI drink five cups of coffee and smoke two cigarettes
\nI sit on the window sill and watch the people pass me by
\n
\nThen I turn on the tv and the radio
\nThough I hate those morning shows
\n
\nAnd I wait like I've been doing for weeks
\nYou see killing time doesn't bother me
\nYeah I wait like I've been doing for weeks, doing for weeks
\nFore somebody to discover me
\n
\nI walk around these crowded city streets
\nI see my money vanishing into thin air
\nI come home... I got everything I need
\nAnd I know there's someone for me somewhere
\n
\nThen I turn on the tv and the radio
\nThough I know there's nothing on...
\n
\nAnd I wait like I've been doing for weeks
\nYou see killing time doesn't bother me
\nYeah I wait like I've been doing for weeks, doing for weeks
\nFore somebody to discover me
\n
\nThen I play my favourite song the one I wrote for so many years
\nJust to hear it fall on deaf ears
\n
\nI play my favourite song\n\n
