I can tell
You're standing there alone
Waiting for
Someone to call your own
When do you find a lover
When do you take your cover
When do they tell you
How to run on your own
When did your mother grieve you
When did your father leave you
Why do you have to ask
To be left alone
Growing
Hear the dial tone
Nights walking, holding hands
Days sticking toes in the sand
We can't understand
But we'll leave if we can
I can tell
You don't know what to do
Waiting for
Someone to drop a clue
When do you leave your lover
When do you take another
When do they tell you
How to love on your own
Growing
Hear the dial tone
Nights walking, holding hands
Days sticking toes in the sand
We can't understand
But we'll leave if we can
You don't know where to go
Waiting for the train to show
It's hard to let it go
When you hear the dial tone
Growing
Hear the dial tone
Nights walking, holding hands
Days sticking toes in the sand
We can't understand
But we'll leave if we can
