What In The World I'm Waiting For

2000

Lyrics

I wanted to become a star and see what has become of me
A wife, a house, a shiny car, a chance to raise a family
A mortgage until I die... could I wish any more?

But now she's gone away for good and I am on my own again
An empty house, a painful truth: I hate to be my only friend
A loner until I die? Did we have to divorce?

I have to keep on going but there's no one here to save me tonight

What in the world I'm waiting for
What in the wayward world I'm waiting for
What in the world I'm waiting
What in the world I'm waiting for
Waiting for

I hated to become a man but didn't want to be a girl
I always do the best I can to be someone out of this world
Pariah until I die? I can't take anymore

I wanted to be loved by you, not someone that you love to hate
I don't want to deny the truth, I trust my sacramental fate
A misfit until I die... I guess I don't have choice

I have to keep on going but there's no one here to save me tonight

What in the world I'm waiting for
What in the wayward world I'm waiting for
What in the world I'm waiting
Wagoner Will is waiting
What in the wayward world he's waiting for

Why should someone sacrifice themselves
When it destroys his life
Then hands of evil score
Stronger than before

What in the world I'm waiting for
What in the wayward world I'm waiting for
What in the world I'm waiting
What in the world I'm waiting for
Waiting for
