Waitin' on the day

Waitin’ on the day
when my thoughts are my own
when this house is my home
and plans are laid

When you’ll be there for me baby
when you’ll love me all the way
when you take my side in every little firefight
when you hang your things and stay

I’m waitin’ on the day
when my life on the run
bleaches out in the sun and
shows my age

I’m waitin’ on the day
when that voice comes to say
that it’s not wrong what you did
for just a kid

when you’ll be there for me baby
when you’ll love me all the way
when you take my side in every little firefight
when you hang your things and stay
I’m waitin’ on the day

Waitin’ on the day
when these words are in stone
when the kids are grown
and we go dancing

Oh can you do it babe?
can you love me all the way?
will you tie me tight in little strands of paradise?
will you walk with me before the morning fades?
I’m waitin’ on the day
