Lyrics
The Wait
______________________
Well I've traveled' many highway's & I've weatherd'
many storm's, let the wind in the air be sure to take me
there I'm gonna' have to take it on home
You see I've flown with the angel's touched thier wing's
with my out stretched' hand's, won't you bottle up my soul
be sure to keep it cold I'm gonna' have to sell it to the man
(Chorus)
You see I've waited over yonder' & I've waited over there
& when the dust finally settle's I'll be the only angel in hell
Watch the wave's rollin' over, a dark sea full of dead
buried soul's, you see the man he's comin' & collectin'
he's gonna' take my soul on home
(Chorus)
You see I've waited over yonder' & I've waited over there
when the dust finally settle's I'll be the only angel in hell
(Chorus)
You see I've waited over yonder' & I've waited over there
when the dust finally settle's I'll be the only angel in hell
& when the dust finally settle's I'll be the only angel in hell
