Lyrics
Waitin' on the moon to bring her back again
Knowin' that it's been a month or maybe ten since she went away,
But I'm waiting here anyway
Waitin' for a sign, I hope I get to see
Hopin' that she'll be still in love with me, but it'll take some time
If I want to make her mine
And the walls are closing in, in this room, and I'm waitin' on the moon
Why tell me why, does love have to be such a hurtin' thing?
I try and I try to make myself believe the moon will bring her back and soon
And I'm waitin' on the moon
Starin' at the clock hangin' on the wall
Wonderin' if she'll call or come back home at all
So I have another beer--wishin' that she were here.
So I spend my nights just dancing with a broom- waitin' on the moon
Why tell me why, does love have to be such a hurtin' thing?
I try and I try to make myself believe the moon will bring her back and soon
And I'm waitin' on the moon
