Lingering - Sheppard

Everybody’s got somebody to see

Everybody’s got somebody but me

Everybody’s got a place to go on a Saturday night

But I’m on my own

Everybody’s got a bed for two

Without another mind that’s wasting room

I’m not afraid to start looking for you

I’m just afraid I’ll be out while you’re passing through.

oh

I’ll be waiting, holding my ground

‘Cause I know you’ll be coming around

I could take a blow from cupid’s bow

If it helps you find me baby

Oh, I’ll just stay here lingering for you

Lingering for you

Everybody’s got a hand to hold

Without another mine is getting cold

And if I never leave I’ll never miss you

It’s just a matter of time before you pass through

I’ll be waiting, holding my ground

‘Cause I know you’ll be coming around

I’ll sit on my own sending waves of smoke

If it helps you find me baby

Oh, I’ll just stay here lingering for you

I’ll whisper, I’ll scream

Either way you’ll remain in a dream

But I foresee the day

When the loneliness will start to decay

You can take for granted the seed I’ve planted

But soon that baby will grow

And in no time honey I’ll find this funny

‘Cause I’ll be running the show, show yeah

I’ll be waiting, holding my ground

‘Cause I know you’ll be coming around

I’ll defy the night and shine beams of light

If it helps you find me baby

Oh, I’ll be waiting holding my ground

‘Cause I know you’ll be coming around

I could take a blow from cupid’s bow

If it helps you find me baby

Oh, I’ll just stay here lingering for you
