I’m making a suitcase packing each lonely night So when you return I’ll open the door and say Sorry gotta catch a flight I’m making a necklace fretting my solitude So my neck can bare the time that I dare To wait around for you
Cause it took so long Waiting for you to come And once you are here I might disappear To tell everyone that I love the waiting I love the eating alone I love watching stars And play my guitar I love the sadness in my bones And I love the waiting I love making tea for one I love fairy tales Of love that prevails I love believing you would come
That’s when I loved you the most I guess I fell in love with your ghost That’s when I loved you the best I guess I failed the test of love But you won’t catch me Out on the porch Folding my hands again I’ll stay on the road with the rest The future’s untold Alea jacta est’
And it took sooooo long Waiting for you to come That once you are here I just disappear to tell everyone that I love drinking In my big empty bed! I love this town And when I was down I loved pretending you were dead I was pretending you were dead
