One of them is sittin' on the east coast
We'll be strangers for an hour and then
(Waitin')
(Ooo)
There's a letter I gotta right
(Ooo)
Waitin', waitin'
Don't know what it's done to me
Somethin' better waitin' for me
One awaits an answer by return post
(Ooo)
(Waiting)
Waitin', waitin'
Pa rup
Take a drink and starin' out the window
(Aaa aaa)
One of them is sittin' on the wrong coast
And there's a letter I've been trying to write
Oh It's cold and it's wet, it's been rainin' all night
Pa rup
And I know when we're together again
An' one of them is sittin' on the wrong coast
Pa rup
Scratchin' them out almost immediately
(Ooo)
(Ooo)
(Ooo)
Somethin' better waitin' somewhere for me
Wonderin' how long this can continue
One awaits an answer by return post
Try to remember how long it's been
Writin' the lines as they come to me
(Waitin')
(Aaa aaa)
Waitin', waitin'
(Ooo)
(Ooo)
Think how easy it is to conceal
We have to figure out if this thing is real
Cold and wet and rain all night
One awaits an answer by return post
An' there was more to us than paper and pen
