Stuck - Melissa Ferrick

Waiting for the rain to start

Looking at the sky

Trying to find some sympathy I can’t seem to find inside

And I’m trying not to think of you

And ways we used to be

But I keep flashing in on your jaw line

To tell you the truth, I’d like to kick you out of me

But I’m stuck here

Waiting for the shoe to drop

Yeah, waiting for a phone to ring

Somebody might need me again

Yeah, I’m stuck here

Waiting for the paint to dry

Waiting on the love of my life

Come on and need me again

Yeah, I thought all the growing was over

That I’d hit some kind of stride

So I went and I put my guard down

You all came and hit me from behind

Hit me from behind

And you think I would have learned all this

The first time around

That pushing only busts stuff

Lying makes me feel obnoxious

And you, yeah, baby you are clearly still no good for me at all

You’re no damn good for me

I said, you’re no damn good

And I’m stuck here

Waiting for the shoe to drop

Yeah, waiting for the phone to ring

Want someone to need me again

Yeah, I’m stuck here

Waiting for the paint to dry

Everybody look at the folk singer waiting on the love of her life

Come on and need me

So rest eludes me

Now I’m back where I’ve already been

Waiting for the rain to start

Looking at the sky
