lyrics

Sorting the keepers from the stray
Before the dream became the day
It was like another world, but I never felt at home
And all the hangers and their vagabond lovers
Could never be alone

They were waiting for the ones they left behind
Waiting for the ones they left behind

So now the subway has met the street
It would seem the fallout is complete
Forever as it is, forever as it goes
It’s like trying to keep that dirty little secret that everybody knows

And I’m waiting for the ones I left behind
Waiting for the ones I left behind

Still sorry for me absence of mind
I was so certain I could make it up in time
So yet another one I left behind was you
And now the taillights fade out beyond the darkness and the dew

Waiting for the ones I left behind
Waiting for the ones I left behind
I’m still waiting for the ones I left behind
Waiting for the ones I left behind
