The Longer You Wait Lyrics & Chords By Richmond Fontaine

He took her on a trip
After she got suspended and was put on review
Down 395 in the middle of the night
He picked up a station from Bishop while she slept
Unsure of how to handle her unsure of what to do
With her brown hair fading gray
And their only son two states away

The longer you wait the harder it is

The night just falls along
All the times he stood right next to her
Only to make her go through life alone
Now her heart sits a thousand miles away
It's been two months since he kissed her face
Twice as long since he held her

The longer you wait
