And She Waited Letra

Taking the long way home
Slowly but surely
You're on your way now
You're on your way down
To your town
Won't make it today
Won't say you're sorry
Won't even call to say you're late
You missed the parade
You missed your birthday
Missed every single holiday
Forgot your way home
It's been too long now
Too much has changed now
It's been too many yesterdays
And she waited
By the front gate
With a smile on her face
And she waited
And she waited
Never made it
Again today
It's never okay
Another delay
Another disappointing day
I hope you're lonely
And empty handed
I hope you're stranded
You took the wrong way to her heart
And she waited
And she waited
As her smile fades away
