song lyrics The Box lyrics
In a box, by the door I keep a letter you sent before It says keep, your head up high I ll think about you while you drive And when you get up on that stage you will arrive A collect phone call, the lobby s bare It s a call to know I care It s a postcard in the mail To let you know I haven t failed And if I miss one day it s been a long, long trail Welcome to my world I m coming home. And in this hotel lobby You leave me alone Will you be there when I return It s been a question of some concern And who s to say, what s less or more Oh, I ll be waiting at your door And when I see you, I ll know what I ve waited for It s the way we see the world There s other ways we can t afford From town to town, we re sometimes late You hurry up and then you wait And when it rains you just can t stand out at the gate song lyrics
