The Waiting List

Don't try to figure out what's going on in his head
Cuz he ain't tryin' hard to see what's going on in yours
They say that you're young but you don't act or look like it
You've got a heart of gold and a good head on your shoulders
They say you're a good girl and you deserve much better

You're on the waiting list and as soon as you get in
You'll see the ones that passed before you
And they'll look at you with sympathetic eyes
And you won't have a choice but do the same to the ones in line behind you

Cuz he'll give you the shirt off his back
But he won't give you his heart

When you see him again, put on your best poker face
Though your heart will be pounding like in a boxing ring
And your ego will have been stomped on like a riding of the bulls
So take a deep breath and take another one for the road
And you'll learn that in the long run, well you'll be declared the winner

Cuz he'll give you the shirt off his back
But he won't give you his heart
