Aboard his ship he stops to stare
Needs to smell her, touch her hair
Says, "I can't be without her"
Tonight he's going to be without her"It's late now", She says
Makes her mind up goes to bed
Another night alone without him
Another night alone in CharlestonWhen I wake to find the solace of
All that we've become
I can't wait to make the promises
I've been leery of, take me down
Let me seeI'll be there waiting
(I'll be there waiting for you)
In the morning when times have changed
I'll be there through the lies and all
I'll be standing like a soldier for youSo you hold your secrets
Through the days when I need to be alone
(I will wait)
I will wait for you
Through the rise and fallShe was left behind so they could stay
Got to feel him this she prays
It'd make her feel so much better
I want to feel so much betterWhen I wake to find the solace of
All that we've become
I can't wait to make the promises
I've been leery of, take me down
Let me seeI'll be there waiting for you
(I'll be there waiting)
In the morning when times have changed
I'll be there through the lies and all
I'll be standing like a soldier for youSo you
(Hold)
Your secrets
Through the days when I need to be alone
(I will wait)
I will wait for you
Through the rise and fallWhen I wake to find the solace of
All, all we've become
I can't wait to make the promises
That I've been leery of, take me down
Let me seeI'll, I'll, I'll be there
(I'll be there waiting for you)
In the morning when times have changed
I'll be there through the lies and all
I'll be standing like a soldier for youSo you
(Hold)
Your secrets
Through the days when I need to be alone
(I will wait)
I will wait for you
Through the rise and fall(I'll be there)
I'll be there
In the morning when times when times have changed
(I will wait)
I will wait for you
Through the rise and fall
