How Long Must I Wait

How Long Must I Wait to Say Goodbye
The longest wait is praying, hoping, fearing
The engines idle turns to tire marks
The only place where something is not broken
Is somewhere deep inside my broken heart

So if you need to run away, you run away
And if you need to get lost, get lost today
But if you need to get high just to leave, get high
How long must I wait to say goodbye?

You’ll find some love and be with loving people
You’ll tie up all your dead ends and move on
You’re sweet and young, oh lord you have no equal
With me you’re as good as dead and gone

So if you need to run away, well, run away
And if you need to get lost, get lost today
And if you need to get high just to leave, get high
How long must I wait to say goodbye?
How long must I wait to say goodbye?

Oooooh

And if you need to run away, you run away
And if you need to get lost, get lost today
And if you need to get high just to leave, get high
How long must I wait to say goodbye?
How long must I wait to say goodbye?
