When I was a kid, I waited<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Waited for parents to permit<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Waited for teachers to permit<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Waited all the time<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I waited along<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For myself to grow up<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When I stepped in college<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I waited<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Waited for my exams <\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Waited for the semester to be over<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I waited all along <\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For myself to be ready for job<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When I stepped in the Job<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I waited, waited yet again<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Waited for my projects<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Waited for my appraisals<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I always waited<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For me to reach home<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Once I got married <\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I still waited, waited long<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Waited for time to rest<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Waited for my kids<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

And I waited<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Waited for Kids to grow up<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Now at the fag end of life<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I sit with my love my wife<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Holding her hand in my hand<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Sitting on the Sea shore sand<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Just waiting once again<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Waiting for the Final Call<\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
