You Will Be Waiting Lyrics

    Words & Music by Steven Page

    As we walk together through the autumn, nearing winter
    Through the dying leaves and trees we call our home and native land,
    You say you don't believe a thing I say, I say you don't believe a thing
    You say you can't believe how I don't understand

    Chorus:
    But I Know
    That you will be waiting
    Oh I know
    That you will be waiting
    Oh I know
    You Will be waiting
    Waiting there for me

    You say you cannot live with me, you need your own identity
    And now we air our laundry on national TV
    And so you hate my arrogance, my smothering and sitting on the fence,
    But I'm afraid of the hard permanence of letting you go free

    Chorus

    I'm so sick of fighting and that effigy you're lighting looks
    An awful lot like whose name I just can't quite place
    And though you say it's not supposed to be me or any entity
    Still through the lames and smoke I see I recognize that face

    Chorus

    And you were someone who would
    Always tell me things I don't know,
    And tell me where to go
    But there I'll always go
    Whether or not you're waiting
    I don't care if you'll be waiting
    But please say that you will be waiting there for me
