Lyrics Leon Russell – Lady In Waiting
Text:
Lady in waiting
What are you waiting for
If Satan stands watching, don’t worry he’s seen it before
Your fingers are trembling, your love is still burning inside
It’s a black and white life that you wear
As a crucified bride
As a crucified bride
Lady in waiting is quietly dying
She’s traded her love for a song
La da da da da da da da da da
Come sing along
The candle can’t help you, your love is still burning inside
Even the Bank of America, God knows they’ve tried
Father is coming, you better just turn down your eyes
You’re so apprehensive, afraid that he might come inside
Oh lady in waiting, is quietly dying
She traded her life for a song
La da da da da da da da da da
On come sing along
