The Other Shoe - John Doe

still flat water on the bay

big fat moon dressed in white

I’m waiting for your call

waiting for the other shoe to fall

dark comes down about 5

red light all in a line

I’m waiting for this song to end

it must’ve played a dozen times

it’s another tale from another town

droopy eyes begin to close

you have had enough

I haven’t had enough

I’m waiting for the other shoe to fall

door wide open

the sun goes down

I’m waiting for the other shoe to fall

one bare foot already out the door

I’m waiting for the other shoe to fall

a fire in the fireplace

a mouse runs across the floor

I’m still waiting for your call

waiting for the other shoe to fall
