Waiting - Mae

Once alone

And too afraid of strangers knocking on my door and

When you came in I knew you’d win

But I was sitting on the front porch swinging

And waiting

I tried walking with you in mind

But looking down, saw my feet were tied

Got to thinking how easy it could be

But then the fear and the chains became a part of me

And waiting

Always waiting

For my ride to pick me up

On my time

Seems I’m staying

As the others cross finish lines

I could break with the day

I could set into speed

But to tell you the truth

I’m always waiting

Always waiting (Always waiting)

Caged in with a beautiful view

And I was waiting for the night when I could soar with you

But when you pick me up, release me to fly

I found that I kept my own wings dry

And waiting

Always waiting

For my ride to pick me up

On my time

Seems I’m staying

As the others cross finish lines

I could break with the day

I could set into speed

But to tell you the truth

I’m always waiting

Always waiting

(I don’t want it back, don’t want it back

I don’t want it back, don’t want it back

I don’t want it back, don’t want it back

I don’t want it back, don’t want it back

I don’t want it back, don’t want it back

I don’t want it back, don’t want it back)

Always waiting

For my ride, please pick me up

Tonight

I can’t stay here

I know I can see my finish line

So I break with the day

And set into speed

But are you driving away?

Are you driving to me?

To tell you the truth I’m always waiting

Always

Always we must find our ways (da da da)

Always (da da da)

All I could do was drive away (da da da)

Always (da da da)
