She'll Be Waiting - The Fantastic Flying Frogs

She’ll Be Waiting - The Fantastic Flying Frogs
Words and Music: Willy Minnix and Jonathan Ford

Wondering lonely
Over the nighttime grass
A taste of heaven
Flowing through the courtyard
Like a specter past

The night drags on
Hoping you’ll return to her
Sitting by the window
She will pray

She’ll be waiting
When the lights are fading
And the moon is waiting to shine
Softly breathing
While the wind is whispering
And the stars reveal their light
In her eyes tonight

Lanterns swing slowly
Hidden o’er the morning dew
She faces the sunrise
Reflecting in her teacup
Swords piercing her through
The day wears on
Her life’s a backwards fairytale
Echoing through the vale
Still you say

She’ll be waiting
When the world is fading
And the moon begins her rise
Walking softly
As the world goes spinning
Under the bright starlight
In her eyes tonight

I once heard her say
Summerlude play me a song
On the windolin and the whippoorwill loud
Summerlude throw me a beautiful strain
To the stars behind my cloud

She’ll be waiting
When the lights are fading
And the moon is waiting to shine
Softly breathing while the wind is whispering
And the stars reveal their light
In her eyes tonight

She’ll be waiting
When the world is fading
And the moon begins her rise
Walking softly
As the world goes spinning
Under the bright star light
In her eyes tonight
