I have been following you
I've seen you like a hurricane blowing on through
All those stomping grounds we hung around while we were still young
I still remember the smell of those old smoky rooms that we knew so well
Now the smoke is gone but the memories dwell in the walls like yellowing ghosts
Oh, that's what you were waiting for
Oh, you always wanted a little more
Strange how the time seems to bend
All of the lines on which we depend
How we can still love so much when we don't see each other no more
I lean with a drink in my hand watching you behind the microphone stand
You're like a fish in the water, you do this so well
Oh, that's what you were waiting for
Oh, you always wanted a little more
Go on swim even deeper my old friend
So I walk unsteady out into the night
I stumble down dark streets as you burn so bright
I ain't unhappy, somehow you did this for the both of us
I wanna tell everyone, I knew what you were before these days in the sun
But that's between you and me and our long history
Oh, that's what you were waiting for
Oh, you always wanted a little more
I've seen you like a hurricane blowing on through
All those stomping grounds we hung around while we were still young
I still remember the smell of those old smoky rooms that we knew so well
Now the smoke is gone but the memories dwell in the walls like yellowing ghosts
Oh, that's what you were waiting for
Oh, you always wanted a little more
Strange how the time seems to bend
All of the lines on which we depend
How we can still love so much when we don't see each other no more
I lean with a drink in my hand watching you behind the microphone stand
You're like a fish in the water, you do this so well
Oh, that's what you were waiting for
Oh, you always wanted a little more
Go on swim even deeper my old friend
So I walk unsteady out into the night
I stumble down dark streets as you burn so bright
