You Will Be Waiting

Barenaked Ladies

Maybe You Should Drive

As we walk together through the autumn, nearing winter
Through the dying leaves and trees we call our home and native land
You say you don't believe a thing I say, I say you don't believe a thing
You say you can't believe how I don't understand

But I know you will be waiting
Oh, I know you will be waiting
Oh, I know you will be waiting
Waiting there for me

You say you cannot live with me, you need your own identity
And now, we air our laundry on national TV
And so you hate my arrogance, my smothering and sitting on the fence
But I'm afraid of the hard permanence of letting you go free

But I know that you will be waiting
Oh, I know that you will be waiting
Oh, I know that you will be waiting
Waiting there for me

I'm so sick of fighting and that effigy you're lighting
Looks an awful lot like someone whose name I just can't quite place
And though you say it's not supposed to be me or any entity
Still through the flames and smoke, I see, I recognize that face

But I know that you will be waiting
Oh, I know you will be waiting
Oh, I know you will be waiting
Waiting there for me

You were someone who would always tell me things I don't know
Tell me where to go, there I'll always go, always go there
Whether or not you're waiting, I don't care if you'll be waiting
But please say that you will be waiting there for me

Don't you ever leave me, don't you...
