  • She checks her watch
    It's just past four
    She's walking into the liquor store
    She's inside out
    And quick to dream
    With empty pockets she can barely breathe

    And she waits...
    And she waits...

    Doesn't matter what they say
    Just keep on walking by
    You can open up their eyes
    You'll get what's yours in time
    So just keep on, wishing
    On the stars outside your window
    I know my voice will guide you home

    And the only change
    That comes her way
    Are the nickels she finds at the entrance way
    Will someone please
    Clean up this mess?
    Her spilled milk life has stained her dress

    She's on the floor, someone get help (and she waits)
    She lost control, then she lost herself (and she waits)

    Doesn't matter what they say
    Just keep on walking by
    You can open up their eyes
    You'll get what's yours in time
    So just keep on, wishing
    On the stars outside your window
    I know my voice will guide you home
    I know my voice will

    And she waits...
    And she waits...

    Doesn't matter what they say
    Just keep on walking by
    You can open up their eyes
    You'll get what's yours in time
    So just keep on, wishing
    On the stars outside your window
    I know my voice will guide you home

    I know my voice will guide you home
    I know my voice will... Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
