Wait a While Letra - Peter McPoland

Well it's a marvel to me

Oh, when my little blue eyes see

You standing there beside the window

Curling hair as if you don't know

What you look like on the first night

That I saw you under streetlights

Next to pine trees that had littered

All the right-turn-only lanes

And it's undeniably silly to watch my friends resort to killing

All their smiles and their willingness to wake, come tomorrow

Their pockets filled with voices, telling them to make the choice

To clinch the rolled-up coins in their fists

Oh, wait a while

For it all to come so fast

Oh, wait a while

For it all to come at last

Still, while I'm engaged in ceremonial, dare I say emotional

Young women latching on to ever-changing drama songs

Filling places every year that earlier were so clear

Besides the blue and black chairs that to me are just so dear

For I've seen them since the second grade in theatre shows and big parades

Around the town of pine tree graves and wooded Woodland shady glades

I watch beside some asphalt dears

And skin my knees and snuck some beers

All around the boys [?] another year

Oh, wait a while

For it all to come so fast

Oh, wait a while

For it all to come at last

Oh, wait a while

For it all to come so fast

Oh, wait a while

For it all to come at last

Oh, wait a while

For it all to come so fast

Wait a while

For it all to come at last

Wait a while

For it all to come so fast

Wait a while

For it all to come at last

Wait a while

For it all to come so fast

Wait a while

For it all to come at last
