Girl Waiting Lyrics

life goes on everyday
all she thinks about is the last
in a plastic lawn chair drinking crystal light
eyes so deep he could almost swim in them
blue bicycle in gravel driveway
black birds on the wire
at gypsy elaine's off i 90
apprentice airbrushing

and she feels so free in the dusty sunlight
like she just flew in like she's leaving soon
brown chevy van in silvery lamp light
stars so big he could almost hand her one
hail falls for rain on the girl waiting
on the fridge a photo booth picture of
their last night back east
in his winter hat and blurry kiss
she could still smell the beach town sheets

and she feels so free in the dusty sunlight
like she just flew in like she's leaving soon
by the rio grande in the silvery lamp light
stars so big he could almost hand her one
hail falls for rain on the girl waiting
for her ship to come in
hail falls for rain on the girl waiting
and she feels so free when the records playing
like she just flew in like she's leaving soon
brown chevy van in the silvery lamp light
stars so big he could almost hand her one
hail falls for rain on the girl waiting
