lyrics

The Honey Dewdrops - Waiting on You

The time we shared so sweet ain’t sweet no more
And trying to work it out, don’t work at all
Each day is a sour fruit too long on the vine
So let’s stop dreaming that it’ll all be fine

Say you got a tender heart, say you got a gentle hand
You told me a lot of things, and I’ve tried to understand
Each day you need another day, you can make it up to me
I’m always waiting on you, I just want to be free

The years I spent with you weren’t all that bad
And just didn’t get the love I need to have
I been faithful, giving and patient all the while
You ran around and told me a thousand lies

Say you got a tender heart, say you got a gentle hand
You told me a lot of things, and I’ve tried to understand
Each day you need another day, you can make it up to me
I’m always waiting on you, I just want to be free

This is no surprise, been coming on
So I won’t make you wait or tell you wrong
Living with you makes my heart ache
So take back this ring, means nothing anyway

Say you got a tender heart, say you got a gentle hand
You told me a lot of things, and I’ve tried to understand
Each day you need another day, you can make it up to me
I’m always waiting on you, I just want to be free
I’m always waiting on you, I just want to be free

Has anyone else noticed that the last few seconds of Abandoned Love are scrambled??? Even when you play it on Bandcamp, it's messed up. Great album, but needs fixed! Justa Lint
