When I Want You Lyrics - Waking Hours - Del Amitri

You sent greetings from Liverpool 

And I took the next train 

Passed by people putting flowers on graves 

And we got delayed 

When I arrived, you had vanished like steam 

And left me in a diesel day 

So I walked around and spent ten pounds 

In amusement arcades 

Felt like I was in a field looking for a pin 

It's a kind of loneliness 

It's a kind of emptiness 

But I'm not trying, I'm just rehearsing for the perfect day 

When I want you, I'll come looking for you 

When I want you, I'll come looking for you 

Yes, I will, yes, I will, yes, I will, yes, I will 

Yes, I will 

Yeah, I took a spoon to the swimming pool 

To drain your trace away 

And I changed my name 

So only my looks remain 

And if looks could kill 

I'd need a license for my face 

'Cos where his fists put bruises 

A scheming smile now takes their place 

Felt like I was in a field looking for a pin 

It's a kind of loneliness 

It's a kind of emptiness 

But I'm not trying, I'm just rehearsing for the perfect day 

When I want you, I'll come looking for you 

When I want you, I'll come looking for you 

Yes, I will, yes, I will, yes, I will, yes, I will 

Yes, I will, yes, I will 

When I want you, I'll come looking for you 

When I want you, I'll come looking 

Yes, I will, yes, I will, yes, I will, yes, I will 

Yes, I will, yes, I will, yes, I will
