I know that I said I'd be gone by now;
I'd be further down the road
But I lagged behind
Belly up, you said, but I wanted you by my side
So this is why I'm waiting
This is why I haven't come undone
This is what I keep saying to keep my shoulders strong
Rosin stickied strings
Hum the opening and back and forth we sway to the beat
And our raw cheeks
They will melt all the snow before it's hushed under our feet
So this is why I'm waiting
This is why I haven't come undone
This is what I keep saying to keep my shoulders strong
