The Hives
Waits Too Long
[Chorus]
(Waits too long)
Waits too long
And the wait's too long
(Waits too long)
And the wait's too long
(Waits too long)
And the wait's too long

[Verse 1]
Car bumper, these legs of mine
Impact so hard it sent me flying
I took a beating, but not to worry
I hold on for me and you
You had true eyes, they shone so bright
We planned a future this magic night
I followed you every wink of your eye
I followed you to a street nearby

[Pre-Chorus]
Busted kneecaps and siren song
This wait of mine – much too long

[Chorus]
Waits too long
And the wait's too long
(Waits too long)
And the wait's too long
(Waits too long)
And the wait's too long
[Verse 2]
Four bleeding wounds for you to see
My beaten body, now they messed me up so thoroughly
You say "I'll find help because that’s how good my heart is"
There’s a future for me and you
So what’s certain is there’s a railway bridge above
I wait right here for you, my love
Without a wallet, with a question so tricky
Why’d you drive off smiling with the man who attacked me?

[Pre-Chorus]
Busted kneecaps and siren song
This wait of mine – much too long

[Chorus]
(Ow) (Waits too long)
And the wait's too long (Yeah, yeah)
Waits too long
And the wait's too long
Waits too long
And the wait's too long

[Bridge]
Busted kneecaps and siren song
Can't say I feel much too strong
And I can't keep my mind off of thinking
This wait's to heaven, and the wait's too long
[Outro]
Waits too long
And the wait's too long
(Waits too long)
And the wait's too long
(Waits too long)
And the wait's too long
(Waits too long)
And the wait's too long
(Waits too long)
And the wait's too long
(Waits too long)
And the wait's too long
(Waits too long)
And the wait's too long
