about

Title track for debut album,
'Waiting for the Light to Change'
Spring 2023

lyrics

i'm captive on this love caravan
curious, a little mad
and i've been trying to learn all I can
until it's time to move on, again

ooh yeah, ooh yeah

and i've been silent in my sadness
because we just don't speak the same love
so i gotta move on now

there's a girl in there she's calling
and i've got to to out walking
said I gotta move on, now

ooh, been waiting for the light to change. ooh yeah

is it too late for us baby?
or have our eyes just gone lazy
and we lost sight, somehow

because we fall in love like stars collide
but when it's gone it's ember dying
and we move on out

ooh yeah, ooh yeah

ooh I feel like a fool i feel sore
sitting here crying, on the kitchen floor
wondering what
i've been waiting for
wanting just, a little more

hey, yeah, waiting for the light to change
waiting for the light.
waiting for the light to change
waiting for the light to, change, whoa

so throw your arms around me
this love could be astounding
higher than the heavens

or a kiss for love, a kiss for luck
lets wander out under the stars above
as we move on now

ooh yeah, ooh yeah
