Everybody's got somebody to see
Everybody’s got somebody but me
Everybody’s got a place to go on a saturday night
But I’m on my own
Everybody’s got a bed for two
Without another mine is wasting room
I’m not afraid to start looking for you
I’m just afraid I’ll be out while you’re passing through oh
I’ll be waiting, holding my ground
‘Cause I know you’ll be coming around
I could take a blow from cupids bow
If it helps you find me baby
Oh I’ll just stay here lingering for you
Everybody’s got a hand to hold
Without another mine is getting cold
And if I never leave I’ll never miss you
It’s just a matter of time before you pass through
I’ll be waiting, holding my ground
‘Cause I know you’ll be coming around
I’ll sit on my own sending waves of smoke
If it helps you find me baby
Oh I’ll just stay here lingering for you
I’ll whisper, I’ll scream
Either way you’ll remain in a dream
But I foresee the day
When the loneliness will start to decay
You can take for granted the seed I’ve planted
But soon that baby will grow
And in no time honey I’ll find this funny
‘Cause I’ll be running the show, show yeah
I’ll be waiting, holding my ground
‘Cause I know you’ll be coming around
I’ll defy the night and shine beams of light
If it helps you find me baby
Oh I’ll be waiting holding my ground
‘Cause I know you’ll be coming around
I could take a blow from cupids bow
If it helps you find me baby
Oh I’ll just stay here lingering for you
