Ann Scott Hot Day
It was a hot day as I waited for you
Sat under blister sun as I waited for you
Book I was reading as I waited for you
Sat still within my room as I waited for you
What is wrong with all this time
Are we not that far?
Are not that far?
My dress was roses as I waited for you
Cold sweat and loose my skin as I waited for you
Colour of red thing as I waited for you
For grace just a bed as I waited for you
What is wrong with all this time
Are we not that far?
Are not that far?
My mind it wandered as I waited for you
Strayed in the shadows as I waited for you
Book I was reading as I waited for you
Deep sigh of breathing as I waited for you
Low swung the branches as I waited for you
And a wind tore the pages as I waited for you
Chapter I came to as I waited for you
Blew the storm of ages as I waited, as I waited
What is wrong with all this time
Are we not that far?
Are not that far?
It was a hot day as I waited for you
Sun creepin' over as I waited for you
Hand to my shoulder as I waited for you
He asked my name I said I was waiting
I was waiting for you
I was waiting for you
I was waiting
