Waiting In Line

(album: Maria Taylor - 2019)

Little bird lands on your shoulder
I would surely make you mine
And we would last for all time

But if fire came down like water
Could anyone survive
Could we last til dawn

I used to walk at night alone around the reservoir
Thought I was waiting there for you
But

I'm getting older but I've got time
Made my decisions, I've changed my mind
Now there's this feeling I'm waiting in line
All this talk about leaving it all behind

Your little world is filled with wonder
It blossoms in your mind
And darling you will find

In the corners of the garden
The secret lonely vines
They will grow for all time

I used to walk at night alone around the reservoir
Thought I was waiting there for you
But

I'm getting older but I've got time
Made my decisions, I've changed my mind
Now there's this feeling, I'm waiting in line
I've made my mistakes, I've served my time
I've walked in circles looking for signs
Now there's this feeling I'm waiting in line
All this talk about leaving it all behind

I'm getting older but I've got time
Made my decisions, I've changed my mind
Now there's this feeling, I'm waiting in line
I've made my mistakes, I've served my time
I've walked in circles looking for signs
Now there's this feeling I'm waiting in line
All this talk about leaving it all behind
