Waiting

High, high on a distant hill Atop a distant hill I sit alone and wait for you The moon it shines so bright It fills this dark cold night With foolish dreams of me and you Here I am waiting for you Waiting for you All alone and waiting for you Waiting for you Road, there is a dusty road Down this old dusty road There is a tavern where you smile That wicked crooked smile That turns the ladies heads And so they listen for a while Here I am waiting for you Waiting for you All alone and waiting for you Waiting for you But one day a star will fall, and I'll hitch a ride Fly me to that man in the moon And then you'll wonder why, why Oh why, why do I listen still, why do I listen now When all you tell me is a lie A lie that's spun with thread, A golden silky thread That catches me just like a fly Here I am waiting for you Waiting for you All alone and waiting for you Waiting for you Wait, I will not wait no more I cannot wait no more I've waited long enough for you I gave you love so sweet It'd make the poets weep It'd bring a lame man to his feet Here I am waiting for you Waiting for you All alone and waiting for you Waiting for you One day a star will fall, and I'll hitch a ride Fly me to that man in the moon Then you'll wonder why, why Oh why, oh why No more waiting
