waiting on you

I'm waiting on you

to bring me the bag

that holds my future in it

I check the time

the scene of the crime

the second hand moves a minute

I don't know who I am

tomorrow moves slow

and yesterday's lone gone

all I need

is a place in need

for which I can hold on

        I'm waiting 

        I'm waiting

        I'm waiting on you

I'm trusting that you

can keep all my secrets

that I can never tell

I've given up on ways

to get through the day

just relying on myself

you are my hope

that the world will run smoothly

lately it's been rough

my fingers are aching

for what's there for the taking

I believe I've had enough

          I'm waiting

          I'm waiting 

          I'm waiting on you

I'm using my hearing

to lift up my spirits

I need your knock on the door

right to the letter

I will feel better

when you bring me more

I'm trying not to be desperate

I know there's some meaning

deep within this space

I don't need advice

but I'll pay the price

as soon as I see your face

'

          I'm waiting

          I'm waiting

          I'm waiting on you
