Wouldn't You Think (Should've Been Here By Now)
Delbert McClinton
Sittin' in our favorite restaurant,
Trying hard not to watch the clock.
Any minute now she's gonna walk, right in.
She said she may be just a little late,
She said she had somebody's heart to break.
And I promised her that I would wait, right here.
Tonight's the night we've been waiting for.
We've got it all planned out.
But wouldn't you think,
She would've been here by now?
The bartender he's looking at me
With a certain bit of sympathy.
Something tells me that he's seen this scene, before
There sad and lonely stood a man
Another one too many in his hand
Checking his watch, and staring, at the door.
Tonight's the night we've been waiting for.
She won't let me down.
But wouldn't you think,
She would've been here by now?
Tonight's the night we've been waiting for
She won't let me down
But wouldn't you think,
She would've been here by now?
Is she running just a little late?
Or has my time run out?
But wouldn't you think,
She would've been here by now?
She would've been here"¦
She should've been here, by now.
