    Somebody's Waiting

    by: Anne Murray

    When the rooms are all in darkness
    And you're knockin' at the door
    No one seems to live here anymore
    Footsteps in the doorway
    Echos in the hall
    You know someone's waiting here for you
    When it's cold outside your window
    And there's snow inside your shoes
    And you're waiting out the cold December blues
    Don't hesitate
    Three o'clock's not late
    You know someone's waiting here for you
    Somebody's waiting
    Somebody's waiting
    Somebody's waiting here for-or you
    Somebody's waiting
    Somebody's waiting
    You know someone's waiting here for you
    When the grey clouds roll all over
    All your sunny days
    And the colour's that surround you fade away
    Look to your side
    Reach out your hand
    'Cause you know someone's waiting here for you
    Somebody's waiting
    Somebody's waiting
    Somebody's waiting here for-or you
    Somebody's waiting
    Somebody's waiting
    You know someone's waiting here for you
    Somebody's waiting
    Somebody's waiting
    Somebody's waiting here for-or you
    Somebody's waiting
    Somebody's waiting
