Waiting to Know You
The Fiery Furnaces
I'm waiting to know you, far away
Send up a balloon, says: "write to me soon,"
I'm waiting to know you, far away
Set up at the pier, wait 'til you get here
And when I'm about to give up hope, but nope
With my telescope
I'm standing guard the navy yard
To see:
Could there one for me be?
Baby, oh no, where did you go?
I'm waiting to know you, far away
Flashlight the cave, listen short-wave
I'm waiting to know you, far away
Dredge up the lake, all the trees shake
And when I'm about to give up hope, but nope
With my telescope
I'm standing guard the navy yard
To see:
Could there one for me be?
Baby, oh no, where did you go?
I'm waiting to know you, far away
Send up a balloon, says: "write to me soon,"
I'm waiting to know you, far away
Flashlight the cave, listen short-wave
And when I'm about to give up hope, but nope
With my telescope
I'm standing guard the navy yard
To see:
Could there one for me be?
Baby, oh no, where did you go?
Baby, oh no, where did you go?
