The Fiery Furnaces - Waiting to Know You

I'm waiting to know you, far away;
send up a balloon says write to me soon.
I'm waiting to know you, far away;
Set up at the pier, wait 'til you get here.

And when I'm about to give up hope--
but nope,
with my telescope
I'm standing guard the navy yard
to see:
could there one for me be?
Baby oh no where did you go?

I'm waiting to know you, far away;
flashlight the cave; listen short-wave.
I'm waiting to know you, far away;
dredge up the lake; all the trees shake.

And when I'm about to give up hope--
but nope,
with my telescope
I'm standing guard the navy yard
to see:
could there one for me be?
Baby oh no where did you go?

I'm waiting to know you, far away;
send up a balloon says write to me soon.
I'm waiting to know you, far away;
flashlight the cave; listen short-wave.
