The Long Wait

I wake up at eight every single day

I draw the curtains aside and greet a new dawn with a smile

I drink five cups of coffee, and smoke two cigarettes

I sit on the window sill, and watch the people pass me by

Then I turn on the tv, and the radio

Though I hate those morning shows

And I wait like I've been doing for weeks

You see killing time, doesn't bother me

Yeah I wait like I've been doing for, doing for weeks

For somebody to discover me

I walk around, these crowded city streets

I see my money vanishing, into thin air

I come home... I got everything I need

And I know there's someone for me somewhere

Then I turn on the tv, and the radio

Though I know there's nothing on

And I wait like I've been doing for weeks

You see killing time doesn't bother me

Yeah I wait like I've been doing for, doing for weeks

For somebody to discover me

Then I play my favourite song the one I wrote for so many years

Just to hear it fall on deaf ears

Deaf ears

I play my favourite song

I play my favourite song

I play my favourite song

I play my favourite song

I play my favourite song

I play my favourite song

I play my favourite song

Play my favourite song
