I’m sitting here
Waiting for you
On this rusty chair
I just sit and stare
The lady with the dog has greeted me a couple of times too many
I guess she’s looking for a new friend
I might need one too
But first, I have to see you
That’s why I ‘m here
Waiting for you
***********************
Maybe when we see
You’ll tell me what went wrong
Why everything has fallen apart
And nothing seems to fit anymore
You’ll answer all the questions that might haunt me forever
And hold me in your arms
While we cry together
Then we’ll sit in silence for a few more hours
Maybe the last we’ll ever share
The peace it’ll give me is enough
Just seeing your face and touching it once more
That’s why I’m here
Sitting in this chair
Waiting for you
****************
The raindrops land slowly on my feet
In perfect sync with one that dropped on my forehead
The rhythm and pattern
A harmonious tune
As I reminisce…
The days when we shared ice-cream from a cup
Cutting your toe-nails while you winced in pain
The pictures we painted together
We were amateurs
But to us, they were master-pieces
This old rusty chair and all our secrets it shares
That’s why I’m here
Waiting for you
*********************
The sun is out
The poodles have all dried up
“Evaporation” they call it
I sit here and wonder
If that’s what happened to our love
Or was it just a mirage
It’s been six hours
Guess it’s just like they say
“No matter how long it rains,
The sun will definitely shine again”
It’s time for me to go
What we had I leave in the past
I wish things didn’t turn out this way
But it’s time for me to say good-bye
I stand and dust my worn-out jeans
My tears are dry
There’s no need for them anymore
******************
I turn to take my leave
And there you are
Soaked in your clothes
Maybe it’s gray,
Maybe the rainbow is out
I don’t care
Cause you’re finally here
The reason I’ve been sitting in this chair
‘”I’ve been waiting for you”
