This Tennessee skyline hasn’t changed
And I lay in this grass alone,
Waiting

Waiting for three special words to be spoken
Wanting to be unbroken
Hoping

Hoping for you to be more than a dream
Wishing you’d love me
Dreaming

Dreaming that one day, you’ll be with me
On tenterhooks of the next time I’ll see you
Wishing

Wishing that you’d fall for me
Praying that I won’t cry
Waiting, hoping dreaming, wishing

Waiting, hoping, dreaming, and wishing
That one day this will be
A dream come true
