[Verse]
Well, For
Whom
The
Bell
Tolls is over
And now I can sack and just fade to black
Well, you know I donât drive
But, honey, if I did, Iâd play that track all the way back
From driving to your house just to say hey
Instead of giving up, I'll see you maybe someday
Iâll buy a pickup truck, paint it flat black and go out on my own
Trying to make amends to myself for all of the chances Iâve blown
Instead of just sitting on my ass waiting for the day
I finally grow up and get my way
[Chorus]
But what the hell was I hoping for?
And what the hell was I waiting for?
Well, I guess I could just do my best to ignore you, honey
[Verse]
But when I was seventeen Iâd follow you around with my head jammed way up your ass
Oh, what I wouldnât give to still be able to conjure up energy like that
âCause he tries to get on my guitar
I wonder if he knows that it ainât there
I wonder if he knows that I really donât care
[Chorus]
But what the hell was I hoping for?
And what the hell was I waiting for?
[Verse]
Well, I guess I could just do my best to ignore you, honey
But I knew what I was getting into
Sitting in your basement playing âForever Blueâ
Back when I thought that every man that I met would be the one to say
Oh,
honey,
itâs
okay,
Iâve
been
lonely,
but
I
can
wait
Well, Iâll be lonely
But I can wait
[Verse]
And then I tell myself that this time could really be it
But I remember the way
Youâd call me up drunk like every six months to say youâve been thinking of me
I hear Chris Isaak on the radio, telling me itâs true
That you still love me darling, but if I know you
Oh youâre still feeding me that same line of shit you always do
[Chorus]
Oh, what the hell was I hoping for?
And what the hell am I still waiting for?
Well, I guess I could just do my best to ignore you, honey
Well, I guess I could just do my best to ignore you
