Feel the footsteps across the room
And your breath underneath my skin
The way your dress moves and hair settles in
Time moves through creaky homes
Ticking clocks like dial tones
And never wrong, sure and headstrong
You said you thought you'd always die young
But death finally comes, you'd be ready
You told me you were bad news
Like a stone in shoe you can't shake, or won't shake
And I'll be waiting
Wherever we can wait
And I'll be hoping
We'll meet again one day
And I'll be waiting
Wherever we can wait
And I'll be hoping
We'll meet again one day
The smell of rain in the heat
And the sound of your keys
For a house that can no longer keep out the breeze
And when the leaves turn to mulch, and your hair turns to grey
Will I be left in the memories and thoughts you retain
And I'll be waiting
Wherever we can wait
And I'll be hoping
We'll meet again one day
And I'll be waiting
Wherever we can wait
And I'll be hoping
We'll meet again one day
And I guess we all fade
You're goddamn right you
And I guess we all fade
Left a mark on us
And I guess we all fade
You're goddamn right you
The writing on my grave
Left a mark on us
And I'll be waiting
Wherever we can wait
And I'll be hoping
We'll meet again one day
And I'll be waiting
Wherever we can wait
And I'll be hoping
We'll meet again one day
