lyrics
Its the day that follows Thursday
She can't get out of bed.
Those familiar words running through her head
She's heard them all before
But this time hoped for more
So in the darkness that's her mind
She rearranges
Every word.
The morning sun's reflecting
Off cobwebs in her mind
She ducks inside
Afraid of what she'll find
Believing so long
She wonders could she have been wrong?
It seems the man beyond the myth
Always
Falls behind
And she's waiting by the window.
Waiting...
And she's waiting by the window.
With a bottle of wine and a whole lot of time
On her hands.
She'll choose the myth
The truth it is too sane
She'll choose the fantasy
So he'll remain
The one who'll never part
The god who
Won her heart
The face that's always smiles
Hides a soul
Torn apart.
And she's waiting by the window.
Waiting...
And she's waiting by the window
With a bottle of wine
And a whole lot of time
On her hands
She'll understand why he went away
She'll understand why again he can't stay
And she's waiting by the window.
Waiting...
And she's waiting by the window.
With a bottle of wine and a whole lot of time
She can't get out of bed.
Those familiar words running through her head
She's heard them all before
But this time hoped for more
So in the darkness that's her mind
She rearranges
Every word.
The morning sun's reflecting
Off cobwebs in her mind
She ducks inside
Afraid of what she'll find
Believing so long
She wonders could she have been wrong?
It seems the man beyond the myth
Always
Falls behind
And she's waiting by the window.
Waiting...
And she's waiting by the window.
With a bottle of wine and a whole lot of time
On her hands.
She'll choose the myth
The truth it is too sane
She'll choose the fantasy
So he'll remain
The one who'll never part
The god who
Won her heart
The face that's always smiles
Hides a soul
Torn apart.
And she's waiting by the window.
Waiting...
And she's waiting by the window
With a bottle of wine
And a whole lot of time
On her hands
She'll understand why he went away
She'll understand why again he can't stay
And she's waiting by the window.
Waiting...
And she's waiting by the window.
With a bottle of wine and a whole lot of time
