Desperados Waiting for a Train - The Highwaymen

All around the water tank waitin' for a train A thousand miles away from home sleeping in the rain I walked up to a brakeman just to give him a line of talk He said if you've got money I'll see that you don't walk Well I haven't got a nickel not a penny can I show He said get off you railroad bum and he slammed the boxcar door Well he put me off in Texas a place I dearly love The wide open spaces all around me the moon and stars above Nobody seems to want me nor to lend me a helping hand I'm on my way from Frisco headin' back to Dixie Land My pocketbook is empty my heart is willed with pain I'm a thousand miles away from home, waitin' for a train

Every day, a shade of blue You won't believe what I'm going' through It just feels like I can't afford to let myself go No, oh-oh, no Everyone is just the same They touch me, but I can't say There has been no one brighter than you I can't deny these things that I do Feels like the world's at stake 'cause I have been waiting, I have been waiting for you Heavenly, that's what you are You're burning me like a shining star How am I supposed to be that king without you? Oh-oh, it's true, yeah Everyone is just the same They love me, but I can't say There has been no one brighter than you I can't deny these things that I do Feels like the world's at stake, yeah I have been waiting, I have been waiting for you Hey, yeah, yeah There has been no one brighter than you I can't deny these things that I do Feels like the world's at stake 'cause I have been waiting, I have been waiting for you I have seen no one like brighter than you And I can't deny these things that I do Feels like the world's at stake, yeah I have been waiting, I have been waiting for you For you Every day, I sit down and I feel like I'm waiting For you I've been waiting for you For you I have been waiting, I have been waiting for you

Everybody's lookin' for the answers Everybody's lookin' for a place to hide When I see you deep inside your shelter Thinking that you got nobody on your side Don't you know if you run the distance You may be so far from the maddening crowd I say the path of least resistance Is knowing that you're around when I call out loud I read the writing it's on the wall [It says] here I am and I'm knocking at your door Get a message and you're not alone I'm waiting for you And you never have to worry no way no way You're not alone I'm right beside you And all you have to do is call me call me You're not alone because I'm waiting for you Lonely nights looking for salvation Exactly what does that mean? All I know is that I need relation Nothin's else could every come between I see the writing that's on the wall [It says] here I am and I'm knockin' at your door I get a message and you're not alone, I'm waitin' for you And you never have to worry no way no way You're not alone I'm right beside you And all you have to is call me call me You're not alone, I'm waiting for you And you never have to worry You're not alone Because I'm waiting for you I'm waiting for you Waiting for you You're not alone I'm waitin' for you And you never have to worry no way, no way You're not alone I'm right beside you And all you have to do is call me call me You're not alone I'm waiting for you And you never have to worry When I look in your eyes You're not alone, I'm waiting for you Waiting for you Waiting for you

You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset She's going off about something that you said 'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do I'm in my room, it's a typical Tuesday night I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like And she'll never know your story like I do 'Cause she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find That what you're looking for has been here the whole time If you could see that I'm the one who understands you Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me, you belong with me Walk in the streets with you in your worn-out jeans I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be Laughing on a park bench thinking to myself "Hey, isn't this easy?" And you've got a smile that can light up this whole town I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down You say, "You're fine", I know you better than that Hey, what you doing with a girl like that? She wears high heels, I wear sneakers She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find That what you're looking for has been here the whole time If you could see that I'm the one who understands you Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me Standing by and waiting at your back door All this time, how could you not know, baby? You belong with me, you belong with me Oh, I remember you driving to my house In the middle of the night I'm the one who makes you laugh When you know you're 'bout to cry I know your favorite songs And you tell me 'bout your dreams Think I know where you belong Think I know it's with me Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you? Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me Standing by and waiting at your back door All this time, how could you not know, baby? You belong with me, you belong with me You belong with me Have you ever thought just maybe, you belong with me? You belong with me
