WAITING IN LINE

Woke up singing ‘Lady Marmalade’
Ain’t it funny how a strong man sings when life gets hard
But I’ve got strong hopes for these things that I do
I’m just waiting in line
I’m just waiting in line
I’m just waiting in line for something new



Got another cold check, and I’ve lost my soul
I could write all my fortunes and luck on a Tootsie roll
But I’ve got strong hopes for me and you
I’m just waiting in line
I’m just waiting in line
I’m just waiting in line for something new



Well my tears run away like your dawn express
And I just can’t help wondering when I’m going to see you next



But I’ve got strong hopes for me and you
I’m just waiting in line
Yeah I’m just waiting in line
Still I’m just waiting in line for something new



Well my tears run away like your morning train
And I just can’t stop telling myself that I’ll never see you again



Still I’ve got strong hopes for me and you
Still I’m here waiting in line
I’m just waiting in line
I’m just waiting in line for something new

​

I’m just here (waiting in line)
No more waiting in line (waiting in line)
Can’t you see me now girl (waiting in line)
Sick of standing here (waiting in line)
Don’t you know that I’m just here (waiting in line)
Tired of standing round here (waiting in line)
Can’t you see me I’m here (waiting in line)
Oh, I’m waiting in line (waiting in line)

I’m just here (waiting in line)
Girl I’m just lost (waiting in line)
Oh, I’m waiting in line (waiting in line)
For something new, something new
