Lady In Waiting
Album - senza data - Debaser id 830658

Drove in from Texas, tired of being alone,
it's so far to find a love on your own,
now we'll be sharing all these days together, you and me,
it's good to find out just exactly what we want to be.

South Carolina, stars in her eyes,
Blue Ridge Mountain, home in the sky.

Laundry's glowing on the afternoon line,
sun'll dry them as long as it shines,
you've been shining through my eyes with everything I see,
darkness and daylight lets me know what you really mean to me.

South Carolina, stars in her eyes,
Blue Ridge Mountain, home in the sky.

It's time to pack up and get ready to go,
things I think lately are things I used to know,
and I've been thinking, Carolina, we can find a way
to be together every night and I'll have you every day.

South Carolina, stars in her eyes,
Blue Ridge Mountain, home in the sky.

South Carolina, stars in her eyes,
Blue Ridge Mountain, home in the sky.

I was born in the South Land
twenty-some odd years ago,
and I left home for the first time, Honey,
when I was four years old,

I'm a freeborn man,
home is on my back,
I know every inch of highway,
every foot of backroad,
every mile of railroad track.

I gotta a lady in Cincinnati,
a woman in San Anton',
I've always loved the girl next door,
Honey, every place was home

I'm a freeborn man,
home is on my back,
I know every inch of highway,
every foot of backroad,
every mile of railroad track.

You may not like the way I look,
you may not like this song,
you may not like the way I live;
you'll love the way I'm gone.

I'm a freeborn man,
home is on my back,
I know every inch of highway,
every foot of backroad,
every mile of railroad,
every mile of railroad,
every mile of railroad track.

It's winter in my consciousness
Dew has turned to frost
Some will win, some will lose
Some have won and lost
You can feel the time between us now
Pullin' us apart
If I could get in touch somehow
We can make another start

And in Ohio, there's one place I would go
Back to the arms of a girl I used to know
We'll be ridin' back in style
Gonna be there in awhile
Back in the heart of a girl in Ohio

Walking the sunshine of the day
Slowly turns to night
Whisperin' winds come what may
Birds in homeward flight
Just one way, that you can go
And the sunset is set free
Softly through the shadows to
The place I wanna be

And in Ohio, there's one place I would go
Back to the heart of a girl I used to know
We'll be ridin' back in style
Gonna be there in awhile
Back in the arms of a girl in Ohio

I know you know me better than
To say I lost my pride
When the things that you can see in me
Things that I can't hide
One day ride through the night
It's all it usually takes
See me clear of yesterday
Most of my mistakes

And in Ohio, there's one place I would go
Back to the heart of a girl I used to know
We'll be ridin' back in style
Gonna be there in awhile
Back in the heart of a girl in Ohio
In Ohio, there's one place I would go
Back to the heart of the girl I used to know
We'll be ridin' back in style
Gonna be there in awhile
Back in the heart of a girl in Ohio

I got no key to my happiness,
I'm satisfied in love, I guess.
Maybe someday, maybe tomorrow,
well, you'll be mine and for sure,
well, I'll be your prisoner.

Kiss my smile, look in my direction,
and catch a glance of loose affection.
Birds are hummin', Tuesday's comin',
and you'll be mine and for sure,
well I'll be your prisoner.

And all the times you've lied,
and all the times I've cried
over you.

February, month of love,
and you're the one I've been dreaming of.
Maybe someday, well, maybe tomorrow,
well, you'll be mine and for sure,
well, I'll be your prisoner

Now, you'll be mine and for sure,
well, I'll be your prisoner.
