Standing around for an hour in the rain   The porcelin promises break once again   Fill me with everything I want to hear   These are the same lines that I heard last year   And you always seem to talk and walk away   Saying things will start to happen anyday       And I say when   So tell me when   And I say when   So tell me when      I've heard so much about boats coming in   Well I seen no ships so I guess I should swim   How did I come to get caught in your wake   The more that I give you the more you still take   And you always seem to talk and walk away   Saying things will start to happen anyday      And I say when   So tell me when   And I say when   So tell me when      Monday is Tuesday then March becomes May   The days of my life are just ticking away      So I say when   So tell me when   I say when   So tell me when
