[Verse 1]
I am my mother’s daughter
And I’ll go a little farther
Stumbling ‘round the lobby
And bracing for the end
I’ll pass out in the waiting room
Got the ring I gave to you
I realized I lost my only friend
I’ll stay if you go
Like I’ve always known
[Chorus]
I’ll be waiting
When everybody’s gone
I’ll be the only one
And I’ll be
Praying
At least it’s worth a try
How do you live a lifetime in a night?
[Verse 2]
I’m trying to regard her
But my sight is getting harder
Burned holes through the contacts in my eyes
What’s left is a bag of your things that I’ll cling to like a memory
Hold on ‘till my knuckles all turn white
I’ll stay if you go
Goodbye’s getting old
[Chorus]
I’ll be waiting
When everybody’s gone
I’ll be the only one
And I’ll be
Praying
At least it’s worth a try
How do you live a lifetime in a night?
[Bridge]
Hold on tight
Say goodbye
Crying like a baby on the phone
Last goodbye
By your side
‘Till your cup of coffee’s getting cold
[Chorus]
I’ll be waiting
When everybody’s gone
I’ll be the only one
And I’ll be
Praying
At least it’s worth a try
How do you spend a lifetime in a night?
