Hurry Up and Wait
I'm a thousand miles away
But the postscript of your letter hangs
Like a paper gallows
Black ink bespeaks in stark relief
A longing we must keep concealed
In origami hearts
"I want to kiss you but I can't
And I want to touch you but I can't
Come home to me
So I can die in your arms
Hurry up and wait
Hurry up and wait"
Does he suspect that we're more than friends
When he calls to wonder where you are?
Late at night, riding in my car
A thousand miles, we could start today
If you'd shed your ring and sink into me
You turn away as I say
I'm at your mercy, do your worst
You know I'm yours if you would only say the words
"I want to kiss you but I can't
And I want to touch you but I can't"
You can plead and curse
But someone's gotta get hurt
Hurry up and wait
If you love me let me go
But the postscript of your letter hangs
Like a paper gallows
Black ink bespeaks in stark relief
A longing we must keep concealed
In origami hearts
"I want to kiss you but I can't
And I want to touch you but I can't
Come home to me
So I can die in your arms
Hurry up and wait
Hurry up and wait"
Does he suspect that we're more than friends
When he calls to wonder where you are?
Late at night, riding in my car
A thousand miles, we could start today
If you'd shed your ring and sink into me
You turn away as I say
I'm at your mercy, do your worst
You know I'm yours if you would only say the words
"I want to kiss you but I can't
And I want to touch you but I can't"
You can plead and curse
But someone's gotta get hurt
Hurry up and wait
If you love me let me go
