Yesterday I waited here four hours, while my husband had day surgery. Wrote some lines to keep busy. #guitelele #bluesy #garageband

The Waiting Room Verse 1 Beige walls in the waiting room Papers taped to painted walls Corners curling, peeling back Every rule in careful scrawl Windows dressed in paper blinds Chairs lined up like trimmed hedges Time sits heavy in the air While silence quietly edges in Verse 2 People come and people go Some too fast, some moving slow No one lifts their eyes around Every stare is on the ground Footsteps pass, then fade away No one knows what they should say Chorus In the waiting room the mood is apprehensive Every thought is nervous, anxious, pensive People sit and stew with nothing much to do In the waiting room Verse 3 All the heads are hanging low Every breath is held just so No one wants to be the one To stand up or to make a run Every second hesitates Like it knows it’s not their turn Chorus In the waiting room the mood is apprehensive Every feeling tight and oversensitive A bit nervous, a bit anxious, a bit blue In the waiting room From the waiting room, it’s better to wait In the waiting room, it’s better to wait
