Winter '84 suitcase by the door
|
There's a waiting car shadows in the home
|
Arms up open wide leaving tears in his eyes
|
And I think about it now only makes her feel so small
|
He said not to worry darling I'll be there too
|
|
And she waits, and she waits
|
Still holding on to yesterday
|
Mistakes its too late
|
She cant take back the times
|
She's wished away
|
And she waits
|
|
Some where in New York he just slammed the door
|
She sinks to the floor and thinks about back then
|
When'd it go so wrong cause its been too long
|
Don't wind up with someone that makes her feel so small again
|
She knows not to worry because he could be back soon
|
|
And she waits, and she waits
|
Still holding on to yesterday
|
Mistakes its too late
|
She cant take back the times
|
She's wished away
|
So she waits
|
She waits
|
|
Feels like she was set up from the day that she was born
|
And now she's gotta get up on her own
|
Cause there's no way to justify all the tears she's cried alone
|
|
And she waits, and she waits
|
Still holding on to yesterday
|
Mistakes its too late
|
She cant take back the times
|
That's gone
|
And she waits, and she waits
|
Still holding on to yesterday
|
Mistakes its too late
|
To take back the times she gave away
|
She waits
|
She waits
|
|
