I sit and wait.

I sit then I stand.

I watch the clock tick as time goes by.

Where are you?

Weren’t you supposed to be here an hour ago?

I can’t stand the thought of what could have happened to you.

I sit and I stand.

I look out the window,

Patiently waiting for your safe return.

Watching and waiting,

Hoping and praying,

Just waiting for that call to come,

Just waiting for something bad or good,

And I am hoping for you to come home in one piece.

I start to cry as you pull into the drive.

I run to the door,

As you walk in,

Thanking god you are alive.

You hug me,

And wipe away all my tears.

I smile as I realize what you have with you.

You remember,

You bring me roses,

You remember the day we said I do.

Now it all seems worth the wait.

Now I remember just how much I love you.
