Nobody has ever been too ready 
For something that meant the world 
Nobody has ever prepared too much
Waiting for something they love

So she waits by the window keeping her lamp lit every night
While all the shadows dance
She keeps staring at the door 
Until one night it opens, standing before her in the light
The one she was waiting for
Questions "Were you expecting me?" 
She says "For the longest time"

Why won't she find some sort of remedy
So she won't have to hold on 
Does she know something that we all don't
Is she sure that he's coming home

'Cause she waits by the window keeping her lamp lit every night
While all the shadows dance
She keeps staring at the door
Until one night it opens, standing before her in the light
The one she was waiting for
Questions "Were you expecting me?"
She says "For the longest time
I've waited night and day
'Cause I didn't know when you'd show at my door"
But she's not waiting any more

So she waits by the window keeping her lamp lit every night
While all the shadows dance
She keeps staring at the door
Until one night it opens, standing before her in the light
The one she was waiting for
Questions "Were you expecting me?" 
She says "For the longest time"
