Lyrics The Wailin' Jennys

The Wailin' Jennys

Untitled

To the man who lost his mind

Left home for the last time

They found him in the wintertime

Looking for something he couldn't find

They shipped him way out West

Thought they'd put their minds at rest

Now they've thrown the key away

And there's nothing left to say

Waiting for a saviour

Show me you're so sad

Wipe the tears that you've had

Show me you're so sad

To the girl who lives next door

Wonders what her life is for

She's waiting for her valentine

To kiss her in the summertime

He doesn't come and so she cries

Locks her door and hopes to die

Now she's thrown the key away

And there's nothing left to say

Waiting for a saviour

Show me you're so sad

Wipe the tears that you've had

Show me you're so sad

Now to the ones you've left behind

Were they not worth your time

They never heard you say goodbye

They never got a reason why

And here's to you who couldn't see

What it was you did to me

Now you've thrown it all away

And there's nothing left to say

And there's nothing left to say

Waiting for a saviour

Show me you're so sad

Wipe the tears that you've had

Show me you're so sad
