Louden Swain
She Waits
[Verse 1]
Have faith
Promises were made
You just take care and behave
You left, and now you are saved
The path, it walks you away

[Chorus]
And meanwhile the house is empty
The floors lay, naked and weary
The walls, barely hanging on
Carry on
And she waits for you

[Verse 2]
Last night
You left like a bird
Fly away, and never be heard
The wind, it's cold and absurd
But, man, you gave her your word

[Chorus]
And meanwhile the house is empty
The floors lay, naked and weary
The walls, barely hanging on
Carry on
And she waits for you

[Bridge]
She can't hear anything they're saying
She can't believe what is true
It doesn't make sense what they're saying
She can't see anyone, but you

[Verse 3]
Little girl
Hold on and wait
It's not fair, the fairness is overrated
Wait and you will be saved
The path, it walks in this way

[Chorus]
And meanwhile the house is empty
The floors lay, naked and weary
The walls, barely hanging on
Carry on
And she waits for you
She waits for you
She waits
