Lyrics

Waiting For Something

Oh my my

Who's that child?

Where is he going to?

Why is he so wild?

What is he staring at?

Why is he so taken?

Seems like he's choosing to believe

Even when he's faking

It always feels like I'm waiting for something

It always feels like I'm waiting for something

It always feels like I'm waiting

It always feels like I'm waiting for something

Elusive energy

Hard to hold

I'm looking for it now and will be when I'm old

Whoever put that fist in the square must have been a good friend to the mayor

Driving by Spanish roundabout art it's gotta be who you know

It always feels like I'm waiting for something

It always feels like I'm waiting for something

It always feels like I'm waiting

It always feels like I'm waiting for something

Have I known you for ten thousand days?

Is there no other way to go?

It always feels like I'm waiting for something

It always feels like I'm waiting for something

It always feels like I'm waiting

It always feels like I'm waiting for something

This new piece I can feel it now

Well once in awhile now

It better grow

It always feels like I'm waiting for something

It always feels like I'm waiting for something

It always feels like I'm waiting for something

It always feels like I'm waiting

It always feels like I'm waiting for something
