she told me all about her life one crowded night
sadly, she thought he hung the moon
she never meant to fall in love with his kind
i'm here to tell you girl, it happens all the time
don't wait around for him all your life
Hey sister tell me -- what are you waiting on
she said brother there are nights, i drink myself to sleep
and he invades every moment of my every dream
oh tell me brother what can i do, to make it all work out
i've tried so damned hard, and i'm still without
don't wait around for him
don't sit and pine for him all your life
Hey sister tell me -- what are you waiting on
Does he cause you pain -- he will never change
And it's been so long -- why don't we sit and talk about the weather;
we could get drunk forever -- what are you waiting on
she told me all about her life, one lonely night
sadly she thought he hung the moon
she never meant to fall in love with his kind
i hate to tell you girl, i can't ease your mind
don't wait around for him
don't sit and pine for him all your life
