I Can't Wait

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Tonight I'm howling at a foreign Moon

Might as well be a junkie's spoon

For all the light it's given me

Sinking in my misery

It's been forty days and forty nights

Darling since I held you tight

I walk the desert of my dreams

I got to get out of here before I scream

Too much take off, too much landing

No such love, no understanding

I can't wait baby till you're by my side

I can't wait baby though you know I've tried

I can't wait baby just one more ride

I can't wait till you're by my side

Could you crawl through your telephone

Girl I'm so tired of being alone

I'm talking to walls in my hotel room

Around the world in a sonic boom

Some close calls and some near misses

All I want is your sweet soul kisses

I can't wait baby till you're by my side

I can't wait baby though you know I've tried

I can't wait baby just one more ride

I can't wait till you're by my side

For all the noise on my hometown street

Little children playing at my feet

Well I would give my soul to be

Back in your arms in Tennessee

Too much take off, too much landing

No such love, no understanding

I can't wait baby till you're by my side

I can't wait though you know I've tried

I can't wait just one more ride

I can't wait, can't wait

Baby till you're by my side

I can't wait baby till you're by my side

I can't wait though you know I've tried

I can't wait just one more ride

I can't wait till you're by my side
