I Will Be Waiting - Daphne Willis

I know the way*

You pull in the driveway

And I know the sound

The sound that the dog makes

And your footsteps fall

Soft on the walkway

And I will be waiting

You know if it’s dark

That I’ll leave the light on

And you know the key

Is under the rock on the front lawn

And you know how lonely I get

When you’re gone

You know what I’m saying

I will be waiting

When you get home

I’m gonna lock you in

I won’t let you go

No, I won’t let you leave again

And I’ll bet you know

That I will be waiting for you

I miss the way

You fill in the spaces

And I miss us in

In our favorite places

And I miss you

The way we turn the pages

And I will be waiting

When you get home

I’m gonna lock you in

I won’t let you go

No, I won’t let you leave again

And I’ll bet you know

That I will be waiting

I will be waiting you for you

Right here

I will be waiting for you

I will be waiting
