While I’m Waiting Here

Lyrics
It's been over thirty days I've not received your letter My fingernails are chewed down to the bone So many different ways I've had to say I'm sorry While I'm left here in this eight by ten alone It's not the four walls movin' in that tortures me It's not the cold cement or shivers down my spine It's just the visions in my head that make me paranoid And wonder if when I get out will you be mine [Instrumental Interlude] I never should have treated you So bad my love I'm sorry I'm broken, now I can see that now it's true My picket fence is turning razor wire And now I'm awaiting trial Things you have to know I did not do If I could get a word with you I'd be just fine Or any envelope with both your name and mine We'd be enough to keep me going In a world where I'm left knowing that There's something more to live for just outside Seems like the last time, feels like the first Though I've had bad days, this has to be my worst I'm left thinking of you dear, while I'm waiting here [Instrument Solo] I haven't seen the sun Since it rested on your shoulder While we walked along that vacant river side They carried me away To a place where I get older If I cannot prove to them you never died Seems like the last time, feels like the first Though I've had bad days, this has to be my worst I'm left thinking of you dear, while I'm waiting here [Instrument Interlude] Seems like the last time, feels like the first Though I've had bad days, this has to be my worst I'm left thinking of you dear, while I'm waiting here [Instrumental to end]
