Lyrics
WASTING TIME AND MISSING YOU
Music & Lyrics By Bob Gray ©
A small town girl with big city problems,
Looking for a reason, to come back home.
She's lost her way, but she's found the answer.
She's leaving the city. She called me on the phone... And she said --
Chorus:
I'm wasting time, and I'm missing you
The house where I live is not my home
Try as I may, I'm not part of this place
There's so many people, but I'm always alone
She's packed her bags, she's bought her ticket
She's tried to make it in the neon lights
Now she is tired, worn out from trying
Exhausted from running, she's coming home tonight
Bridge:
Yes Operator... I'll take a Collect Call
Anytime of the day
She's the one Star in my life that will never fall
The Star that brightens my way. She said-- (Repeat Chorus)
Soon she'll be home, I'm here at the station
I'm waiting to hold her, and not let go
She took her shot, now she's returning
I'm still here waiting and I told her so... When she said-- (Repeat Chorus)
