| The snow in Montana was three feet high
|
| The lady at the counter said: There ain’t no flights
|
| And so he called her on the telephone
|
| He said: I’ll rent a car and I’ll drive home
|
| And she said: I’ll wait for you
|
| Like I did last year
|
| At Christmas time with your family here
|
| And your truck broke down out in San Antone
|
| And the gifts stayed wrapped until you got home
|
| Oh, this ain’t nothin' new
|
| Sweetheart, I’ll wait for you
|
| Now he’s on his cell phone in a Coupe Deville
|
| Talkin' to the one he loves and always will
|
| His heart is breakin' 'cause she’s there alone
|
| Her heart is achin' 'cause she wants him home
|
| She says: I’ll wait for you like in '68
|
| When our child was due, but I said, he’ll have to wait
|
| Until his dad gets here and stands by my side
|
| Remember, Dear, our son’s first cry
|
| Oh, this ain’t nothin' new
|
| Sweetheart, I’ll wait for you
|
| He didn’t stop all day to eat a bite
|
| And he finally got there around midnight
|
| The doctor said, she’s in a better place
|
| She said to give this you this note just in case
|
| And it said, I’ll wait for you at Heaven’s gate
|
| Oh, I don’t care how long it takes
|
| And I’ll tell Saint Pete I can’t come in Without my love and my best friend
|
| Oh, this ain’t nothin' new
|
| Sweetheart, I’ll wait for you
|
| P. S. I love you, too
|
| Sweetheart, I’ll wait for you |
