In a nightclub by the bay
Where my old band used to play
Every song I love is pain
I'm waiting for you
On the dance floor by the stage
It's like a past life takes the reins
Every time someone speaks your name
I'm waiting for you
    
Waiting for you to come back home
I'm waiting for you to call my phone
I lay on the roof, see you in the stars
Evading the truth in cafés and bars
Still waiting for you
    
On a sidewalk, names engraved
From a long lost yesterday
On a park bench, drenched in rain
I'm waiting for you
    
I try to keep cool
I feel like a fool
I slip and slide, I take it all in stride
I try to keep cool
I try to keep cool
I try to keep cool
Keep it all inside
    
Waiting for you to come back home
I'm waiting for you to call my phone
I lay on the roof, see you in the stars
Evading the truth in cafés and bars
Still waiting for you
    
Still waiting for you
    
Every word
Of every line
Of every song
Every song
Every song I love is pain
    
Waiting for you to come back home
I'm waiting for you to call my phone
I lay on the roof, see you in the stars
Evading the truth in cafés and bars
I'm waiting for you to come back home
I'm waiting for you to call my phone
I lay on the roof, see you in the stars
Evading the truth in cafés and bars
Still waiting for you to come back home
I'm waiting for you to call my phone
I lay on the roof, see you in the stars
Evading the truth in cafés and bars
Still waiting
    
Still waiting for you
Still waiting for you, for you, for you
