Story behind the song
This song was inspired by an old friend of mine. She always seemed to be waiting for the right guy to come along and was unlucky in love with all the guys who did come along!
Lyrics
Waiting For Godot Is she waiting for Godot? Is she waiting for a man Who'll feed her with illusions And break her if he can? Can someone who's a challenge Be someone who is kind? Or Is a liar and a cheat The only challenge that she'll find? Is she waiting for Godot? Is she waiting for a man Who'll put her on a pedestal Where she don't want to stand? Can someone who is kindly Be someone who will know The flaws which make a little Of the sweetness seem to go? Chorus: So don't make her into an angel please Nor the projection of your fantasies But don't screw her up and break her heart Cause she's been through that before and she don't even want to start. She don't even want to start. Instrumental break Is she waiting for Godot? Is she waiting for a man Who'll help her find her place Inside the Universal Plan? Does it all come down to attitude? Is her thinking out of line? Does she confuse reality With wanting the sublime? Chorus.
