As we walk together through the autumn, nearing winter
Through the dying leave and trees we call our home and native land
You say you don't believe a thing I say, I say you don't believe a thing
You say you can't believe how I don't understandBut I know you will be waiting
Oh I know you will be waiting
Oh I know You will be waiting
Waiting there for meYou say you cannot live with me, you need your own identity
And now we air our laundry on national TV
And so you hate my arrogance, my smothering and sitting on the fence
But I'm afraid of the hard permanence of letting you go free
But I know that you will be waiting
Oh I know you will be waiting
You will be waiting, waiting there for meI'm so sick of fighting and that effigy you're lighting looks
An awful lot like some one whose name I just can't quite place
And though you say it's not supposed to be me or an entity
Still through the flames and smoke I see I recognize that faceBut I know that you will be waiting
Oh I know you will be waiting
You will be waiting, waiting there for me
You were someone who would always tell me things I don't know
Tell me where to go, there I'll always go
Always go there, whether or not you're waiting
I don't care if you'll be waiting
But please say that you will be waiting there for meDon't you ever leave me, don't leave
