The Way, Things Should Be

Broke down by the side of the road, even my spare tires blowed
Got 3 quarters and a nickel too, slid myself into some telephone booth,
when a light from up above shined through the trees, I thought it was the
timing to leave it be, I wonder why...
Felt something tingle in my feet, as my body floated off the street, I ain't
ever been able to fly, glanced up to wonder why, blinded all I could hear
was this whirring sound, and some smart looking lady, staring me down...
She said I come in peace that's what they said you'd say, time traveled
from a long long way, Said HEY! Did you know you're not the only one? As
we skidded on past the sun, it might seem kinda funny but I swear I always
knew, listen to these words I
speak to you, and listen to me good...
I'll wait for you, if you'll wait for me, it's past possibility
I'll wait for you, if you'll wait for me, this is
the way, things should be
She took my hand, led me down the hall, lines busy make another call,
there
I sat while she blew my mind, just a stranger different kind, with
lights so bright she wound me up with ease, I didn't even have to say
please, yea...
She told me secrets as I came, to be changed the static on night TV,
broadcast me staring sides of stage,
we all gotta make our wage, as she
stared me straight and simple in my eyes, "let me bless you make you
wise..."
I'll wait for you, if you'll wait for me, it's past possibility
I'll wait for you, if you'll wait for me, this is
the way, things should be
Beep! Beep! Beep! I heard my alarm, slammed the bone on my funny arm,
my baby said "come back to bed", with this rant ringing through my head,
sitting, silent, speechless, sullen, sound, with this thought that I had found,
here it goes...
I'll wait for you,
if you'll wait for me, it's past possibility
I'll wait for you, if you'll wait for me, this is
the way, things should be
