Waiting ft. Grace Charles Lyrics

My child left home one day

Wanted him to stay

But he asked to go away

And all he did was say

Hand me a portion of my right

So he got his rightful way

He set off for the town

Spent on friends and lost it all

He sleeps now with 'em swine

My pearls they're wrapped in mud

My spoils are really spoiled

I'll be waiting

Yonder, by the lights

At the porch hoping you come back to my side

Once was lost but now you're found

Dead but now alive

Till my last breath I'll be here for you my child

I'll be waiting

Yonder, by the lights

At the porch hoping you come back to my side

Once was lost but now you're found

Dead but now alive

Till my last breath I'll be here for you my child

You are my cherished jewel

Bled and died for you

A pint and more; my rose

An open tomb; my voice

that cries for your return

I can't tell the joy

You bring to me my little boy

You're my number one

Ninety-nine is none

When one is on the run

I'll be waiting

Yonder, by the lights

At the cross hoping you come back to my side

Once was lost but now, you're found

Dead but now alive

Till my last breath I'd be waiting for you my child

I'll be waiting

At the cross hoping you come back to my side

Once was lost but now, you're found

Dead but now alive

Till my last breath I'd be here for you my child
