waitin' on the blues

Singer:reckless kelly

you never gave a reason for leavin'

just packed your things and you said goodbye

i guess you just got tired of believin'

in the dreams of a dreamer such as i

usually i'm not left in this position

most of the time

it's me who says goodbye

you never dropped a hint that you're goin'

naturally it came as a surprise

sittin' in a run-down dive in austin

anticipatin' pain from losin' you

well it hasn't hit me yet

it'll be here you can bet

i'm sittin' here

waitin' on the blues

i hate to get advice when i don't ask it

that's what i'm gettin' here tonight

the old man says 'cause i'm young i'm foolish

since he's old i guess he must be right

he said i should try to forget about you

i know that's not left for me to choose

who knows you might come back but until you do

guess i'll sit here waitin' on the blues

sittin' in a run-down dive in austin

this old man's tellin' me that i can't lose

but i guess he's wrong

'cause i already lost you

oh i'm sittin' here

waitin' on the blues

sittin' in a run down dive in austin

you left me here with nothing left to lose

well this delayed misery

you know it's damn near killin' me

i could spend a lifetime

waitin' on the blues. i could spend a lifetime

waitin' on the blues
