Don't Wait Up Lyrics

You say you're leaving town on the early train

You're not even gonna wait for him to try and explain

Are you gonna be the one to leave this time?

Are you gonna be the one to go?

So take a window seat there, and don't look back

A thousand miles of empty railroad track

You'll get halfway there and turn around

Nothing gained and homeward bound

'Cause love takes your heart and makes you cry and beg for more

Love steals you blind, but isn't that what love is for?

So, don't wait up to see the light, you've still got a ways to go

So, you sit in the corner, but you're alright

Another lonely day and sleepless night

You know that she feels the way you do

Reliving everything that you've been through

So, what'll become of all your fantasies?

The songs you fell in love to? The memories?

Save your tears up for a rainy day

Apologies are never far away

'Cause love takes your heart and makes you cry and beg for more

Love steals you blind, but isn't that what love is for?

So, don't wait up to see the light, you've still got a ways to go

Nothing good is ever easy, but it won't always be this hard

The grass is already greener on your side of the yard

'Cause love takes your heart and makes you cry and beg for more

Love steals you blind, but isn't that what love is for?

So, don't wait up to see the light, you've got a long, long way to go
