(verse) I was perched outside in the pouring rain Trying to make myself a sail Then I'll Float to you my Darling With the evening on my tail Although not the most honest means of travel It gets me there none the less I'm a heartless man at worst, babe and a helpless one at best Darling I'll bathe you're skin I'll even wash you're clothes Just bring me some candy, before I go oh darling I'll kiss your eyes and lay you down on your rug Just bring me some candy, after my heart (verse) Oh and i'm often false explaining but to her it plays out all the same and although I'm left defeated it still gets held against my name I know you've got plenty to offer baby but I guess I've taken quite enough I'm some stain there on your bedsheet your my diamond in the rough* (Chorus) Know that I'll be there waiting for you oh I'll be there waiting for you I'll be there waiting for you (repeat) All the cutthroats and their jagged ends all of them have got me waiting and waiting All the cheap and sugary philosophies Have got me on the fence just waiting and waiting all the angels and their halos all they do is keep me waiting and waiting (repeat)
