Waiting to Hear From You
Lyrics
Waiting to Hear from You

Well I?m tired but I?m waiting to hear from you
Yes I?m wired but I?ll have another drink or two
Yes I will
And I?ll smoke somebody else?s cigarettes
Stare at the phone that ain?t rung yet
Well how much longer will you let me be waiting
Ah to hear from you

Well the splashing rain and paleness of grey skies
This morning brought the light into my eyes
And dreams of people faces with a dancing in the street
Ah the memories of another lonely night
I got to tell you how I?m feeling
I thought you felt it too
Now I know you like to rock-and-roll
And I want to boogie woogie with you
Oh yeah

Well I?m tired but I?m waiting to hear from you
Yes I?m wired but I?ll have another drink or two
Yes I will
And I?ll smoke somebody else?s cigarettes
Stare at the phone that ain?t rung yet
Well how much longer will you let me be waiting
Ah to hear from you
Ah to hear from you
Ah to hear from you
My lover
