Testo She Waits

Testo She Waits

Have faith
Promises were made
You just take care and behave
You left, and now you are saved
The path, it walks you away

And meanwhile the house is empty
The floors lay, naked and weary
The walls, barely hanging on
Carry on
And she waits for you

Last night
You left like a bird
Fly away, and never be heard
The wind, it's cold and absurd
But, man, you gave her your word

And meanwhile the house is empty
The floors lay, naked and weary
The walls, barely hanging on
Carry on
And she waits for you

She can't hear anything they're saying
She can't believe what is true
It doesn't make sense what they're saying
She can't see anyone, but you

Little girl
Hold on and wait
It's not fair, the fairness is overrated
Wait and you will be saved
The path, it walks in this way

And meanwhile the house is empty
The floors lay, naked and weary
The walls, barely hanging on
Carry on
And she waits for you
She waits for you
She waits
