Waiting For Susan Lyrics - Ani Difranco

Susan is a connotation 

At less than arms length 

She has the strength of an opinion 

Her promises are like the night overcast 

Like the stars she doesn't show 

And when she does, she doesn't last 

You can see her goodness 

Like her breath on a window pane 

And then she turns her head 

And it is gone again 

And while I'm left waiting 

She'll wax and she'll wane 

And maybe she'll come here again 

And susan was at the other end of the line 

And she received me just in time 

And I lean to her like a preference of mine 

Like a reference to friendship 

She defined my time 

Now I'm waiting for susan 

I don't know where I am in line 

I'm waiting for susan 

I wonder where I am in line
