If You're Waiting On Me

Tryna make a dovetail joint fit tight
Anything I do I know I must do right
And while the buzz saws whine
I paint the fireplugs red
And while a pale moon shines
I bite my nails in bed
All we do is talk about the dreams we share
Talking while they vanish into thin hot air
Hey listen mountains move
Ain't there a time frame here
Hey promise must be proved
Now proving mine this year
And if you're waiting on me
And if you're waiting on me
Well if you're waiting on me
You're backing up boys
Once there was a man that couldn't think too well
Spent a lotta time down in a self-made hell
And every choice he'd choose
It'd be the wrong damn door
I'm in his worn out shoes
But I'm not him no more
And if you're waiting on me
And if you're waiting on me
Well if you're waiting on me
You're backing up boys
Graduation day came slow
Many jukebox years ago
Gotta graduate more now
We all gotta learn how
Floating down the river till the sunset died
Standing where we shivered in the tugboat's tide
Oh what a tide that was
We had it all right then
But now it's gone because
'Cause things just change my friend
You and I know fully well that we're not kids
Maybe I don't know you like I thought I did
You tell me scarecrow things
I think it's crossroad times
What will tomorrow bring
You'd best make up your mind
And if you're waiting on me
Now if you're waiting on me
Well if you're waiting on me
You're backing up boys
Said if you're waiting on me
And if you're waiting on me
Oh if you're waiting on me
If you're waiting on me
Hey if you're waiting on me
If you're waiting on me
Oh if you're waiting on me
You're backing up boys
