lyrics

Willowy woman won’t you wait for me?
I’ll wait for you
We’ll get through this soon

We never got to talk about
The night everyone turned around
But we might just be all right
See, it’s all coming on down

Is this fair, you ask me
I don’t care, you tell me as you walk on down the road

Your glasses are fogging up
You take them off for dramatic effect
You leave them off – I don’t know what to expect
Willowy woman won’t you wait for me?
I’ll wait for you – We’ll be through this one soon

Arts and crafts on a Sunday afternoon
Pressing cheeks and lips against the window panes
As we watch the rain stream down & far, far away

Willowy woman won’t you wait for me?
I waited so long for you to come home
Willowy woman won’t you tell me
“We’ll be through this one soon,
We’ll be through this one any day now.”

You tell me I’m a broken record
I can’t help it, I didn’t break myself

You tell me I should pack my bags
I fake it & I crawl back into bed

Willowy woman won’t you care for me?
I keep my stare off of you as you cross my street
Willowy woman can’t you hear it from my voice?
You’re all I ever wanted

Willowy Woman
Now what do I do
Willowy Woman
Without you
