“How Long are You Just Going to Sit There?”
(lyrics co-written with Christina Charbonneau)
The clock is wound down - the chair is worn through Your first pair of sneakers is still brand new These same four walls can't talk no more There's no telling what's outside your door Well, you can come, or you can stay But enough's enough - I'm leaving today I'd say I'd write the old “Wish you were here” But you haven't checked the mail in years [chorus] How long are you just gonna sit there? Waiting for something better to come along When something better never waits for you Dishes piled high - the laundry is higher The trash is going to make a good bonfire The coffee's gone cold - iced tea is luke warm This city mouse can't stay on the farm There once was a time we had races to run I'll lap you just once more - then I'm done All of our moments have led to this fate But your ride is gone - who wants to be late?
