paroles de chanson Waiting At The Gate - Carly Simon

An occasional joint
A glass or two of beer
Still I never would have guessed that you′d wind up here
In a halfway house
On a dead end street
In a run-down part of a one-horse town
But just do what they say
Don't worry ′bout your girl
'Cause I won't run away
And I won′t run around
And I won′t let you down
And without a doubt
I'll be waiting, waiting
Waiting at the gate when they let you out
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

You set the world on fire
Dancing after dark
Now you′re playing solitaire in a fenced-in park
I'm not the one to judge you (I′m not the one)
So baby, don't be scared (Baby, don′t be scared)
No one gets a free ride
None of us is spared
I'll be back on the ninth
I've circled the date
Three o′clock sharp
And I won′t be late
You've been through hell
I know what that′s all about
And I'll be waiting, waiting
Waiting at the gate when they let you out
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

The doctors have so little faith
They said you were a classic case
They said the chance is eight in ten
They′d see you back in here again

But I'm counting on you
To prove the doctors wrong
I′m imagining you
Healthy and strong
Your papers all stamped (All stamped and signed)
Your eyes so bright and blue (Bright and blue)
Looking like a baby picture of you
Walking down the path
Your suitcase in your hand
The howling at your back
A brand new man
Be a perfect little camper
Be a brave little scout
And I'll be waiting, waiting
Waiting, waiting at the gate when they let you
Out
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
