A Child Is Waiting

Didn't I make you want to fall in love Singing those twisted songs So sweet they made you worry? Didn't I make you want to take my hand Take me to a land Very duckdown and feathery? I will never take you there I will never take you there I will never take you there A child is waiting Meanwhile in the desert of my soul I watch the evening crawling in I spent my adolescence parking cars Waiting for friendships to begin They will never find me there They will never find me there They will never find me there A child is waiting, a child is waiting A child is waiting for me to father her A child is waiting for her to father me A child is waiting I know a woman who incarnates love Or is she just a fantasy? Can I make her want to take my hand? Oh well, that's up to me Am I getting anywhere? Am I getting anywhere? Am I getting anywhere? A child is waiting --- A Child Is Waiting - Stephen Duffy
