WAITING ROOMS (O’Brien)

 

 

Wasted hours in waiting rooms

Listening to the same old tunes

Looking at a morning sickle moon

Watch is running fast again

Half past nine going on ten

Hoping we’ll pull out soon

 

Never thought anyone could

Sing that song like you

Breath for breath, line for line

And every word is true

Wheels turn, wheels turn

And I ‘m rolling back to you

Wheels turn, hearts burn

And I ‘m rolling back to you

 

Looking up the times of trains

Destinations cryptic names

Wondering what’s the lie and what is true

And every connection caught

Every ticket ever bought

I was hoping would take me back to you

 

Never thought anyone could

Sing that song like you

Breath for breath, line for line

And every word is true

Wheels turn, wheels turn

And I ‘m rolling back to you

 

Wasted hours in waiting rooms

Listening to the same old tunes

Looking at a morning sickle moon

Watch is running fast again

Half past nine going on ten

Hoping we’ll pull out soon

 

Never thought anyone could

Sing that song like you

Breath for breath, line for line

And every word is true

Wheels turn, wheels turn

And I ‘m rolling back to you
