song for the waiting

there's no straight road, tonight to take me home, to lay me in my lover's bed, there's no good way, tonight to make me okay, no voice to calm, my rainy head, it's not the road, it's not the miles, or being alone, that tells my heart, she should be aching, the danger's in, the danger's in, the danger's in the waiting, i see my life well rehearsed, and it bores my mind, it's like a show, i've seen a thousand times before, i see my life in reverse and it scares me inside, i see all the ways, i should be giving more, it's not the road, it's not the miles, or being alone, that tells my heart, she should be aching, the danger's in, the danger's in, the danger's in the waiting, the night is warm but lonely, i should be crawling in, you're fast asleep but i am waiting, the days are so unholy, you make me right again, the night is long, i'll be waiting
