about

A whimsical free flowing song about life, love and the pursuit of young love...

lyrics

Billie-Joe was softly blowing
Kisses through the window when a
Heart-ache waiting to happen
Came a calling after

All her precious mysteries
And all the things that made her different
Only to the one who
Wished she was coming over

And she sings…

So lonely
Looking backwards
Makes her wonder
What’s the prize she’s fighting for?
So boring
Waiting for
The shining one
To open up all her locking doors

Waiting on the other ride
With a world of promise by his side
Sits a crazy kind of anti-hero
Tuning up his early warning

Looks of wonder in his eyes
Blowing rings of smoke round his head
Liking danger with his soda
Drink ‘em’ up and keep it coming

And he sings…

So lonely
Looking downward
Makes him wonder
What’s the prize he’s fighting for?
So boring
Waiting for
The gentle one
To open up all his locking doors

Now and then when it gets too much
And she feels her life’s in a great big rut
She starts counting candy apples
Cause they’re tasty and pull her focus

On and on he digs his grave
Never knowing what tomorrow brings him closer
To her window
But he never sees past his anger

And she sings…
And he sings…

So lonely
Looking forward
Makes them wonder
What’s the prize they’re fighting for?
So boring
Waiting for
The other one
To open up all their locking doors
