Standby Lyrics

I'm searching for lines and you're passing the time

And I'm waiting for nothing again

But then there's a moment, it comes, then it goes, then

I'm hanging on nothing again

You keep me on standby

So I'm standing 'til you come round

You keep me on standby

Feet are hurting but I stand my ground

I know you like to wind me up so without you I come unwound

You keep me on standby

Maybe it's time that I sat down

While you're keeping me, I'll be keeping busy

I'll keep up to keep off the withdrawal

Only comfortable when packed with hands my full

Still I'd drop it all at your call

You keep me on standby

So I'm standing 'til you come round

You keep me on standby

Feet are hurting but I stand my ground

I know you like to wind me up so without you I come unwound

You keep me on standby

Maybe it's time that I sat down

Would you stand for it the way I stand for it?

Or, do you know when to quit?

Am I too tolerant?

Is it that obvious I can't pull out my own chair to sit?
