Lyrics of Wait so long

I could never pretend that i don't love you*
You could never pretend that i'm your man.
That's exactly the way that i want it.
That's exactly the way that i am.
And you call me in the morning with your troubles
Takin' it downtown every night
I could never place the stars at night above ya.
I got my hands on the ground,
And you know i'm right.
You wait so long,
You wait so long,
You wait so long,
You wait so long.
It's a coffee stained earth ever time it happens.
Liven up honey it ain't that bad.
Any afterthought rose to recognition
Like every other coffin that i had
And your buick broke down in winnemucca
Fall to your knees and you pray to the lord
Nothing happens in this burnt out town anymore.
You wait so long,
You wait so long,
You wait so long,
You wait so long.
And your heart rolls on like a frozen freight train
You know that i'll help you if i can
But i'm just a raindrop in a river
Just a little itty-bitty grain of sand
And you know that i'm doomed to repeat this
With all the bad habits that i've learned
But it's better than your fiber 'n fornication
And all the dirty money that you earn.
You wait so long,
You wait so long,
You wait so long,
You wait so long.
