I Would Have Waited Here All Day

There are dishes in the sink this morning

They remind me of a dream

There are coffee cups and empty glasses

I laid next to a wet sponge

I casually accept the image

As something that I've seen

I'm cooking breakfast

You're on my radio

You're dripping wet from a mid day shower

Soon you'll be drying off your dick

I want to be romantic about it

But there's really not much more to it

I slip into the clothes that you bought me

And I pull on my new boots

I wait for you to call

On your way home from work

I'm saving up my moments

For the next time that we meet

You're cherry red I'm a kick in the head

And for this I thought I would probably receive

The afternoon is a study in stagnation

Seems I haven't moved an inch

I guess it stems from a form of frustration

And how we never get enough

I check my watch and I scratch my head

And I walk out on the deck

I reach into my pocket book

And I light my last cigarette

I'm saving up my moments

For the next time that we meet

You're cherry red I'm a kick in the head

And for this I thought you would probably receive

My favorite hour of any day

Is the one before you get home

A fading sense of anticipation

Is something I've come to know

I do not doubt and we will wait it out

I would have waited here all day

You pull around the corner

And you park in my driveway

You pull around the corner

It's been a lousy day
