Somebody's Waiting For Me

Somebody's waiting for me

Someone who loves me, I know

For the light is shining bright in her window tonight

For there's somebody waiting there for me

Was in a concert garden when the fun was at its height

When all the joy and wine began to flow

At a table in a corner, a young man slowly rose

And he said, "It's getting late, boys, I must go"

Somebody's waiting for me

Someone who loves me, I know

For the light is shining bright in her window tonight

For there's somebody waiting there for me

"Perhaps you have a sweetheart," one among them said

"Is she handsome, Jack? Pray, introduce us two"

"If you'll follow me," he answered, "I will show her to you, boys

She's the only sweetheart that I ever knew"

Somebody's waiting for me

Someone who loves me, I know

For the light is shining bright in her window tonight

For there's somebody waiting there for me

Then he took them to a cottage, pointed to a window pane

Where a gray-haired woman sat with bowed down head

"She's my mother, she's my sweetheart, she's the one I met tonight

So you see I told the truth, boys, when I said"

Somebody's waiting for me

Someone who loves me, I know

For the light is shining bright in her window tonight

For there's somebody waiting there for me

Somebody's waiting for me

Someone who loves me, I know

For the light is shining bright in her window tonight

For there's somebody waiting there for me

Somebody's waiting for me

Someone who loves me, I know

For the light is shining bright in her window tonight

For there's somebody waiting there for me
