Richmond Fontaine - The Longer You Wait lyrics

He took her on a trip After she got suspended and was put on review Down 395 in the middle of the night He picked up a station from Bishop while she slept Unsure of how to handle her unsure of what to do With her brown hair fading gray And their only son two states away The longer you wait the harder it is The night just falls along All the times he stood right next to her Only to make her go through life alone Now her heart sits a thousand miles away It's been two months since he kissed her face Twice as long since he held her The longer you wait
