Packed my things and went away a thousand years ago today

For I had places to go and things to see

I had a girl who loved me so and she begged me not to go

But I left and took her pleading words with me

I'll be waiting always waiting I love you and I'll miss you while you're gone

I know you have to do what your heart tells you to

So I'll be waiting till it tells you to come home

All the things I'd hoped to find I soon learned I'd left behind

So I told myself oh boy let's us go home

Cause our darling's waiting there and she said she'd always care

And the echo of her promise leads me on

I'll be waiting always waiting I'll be waiting till your heart tells you come home

I'll be waiting always waiting

Well I got back home today and I almost wished I'd stay away

For I left here with a smile and now I weep

Oh she kept her promise alright and she's waiting here tonight

Still waiting neath the ground where she's asleep

I'll be waiting till your heart tells you come home
