I'm sitting in a room

And waiting for an answer

And hoping that the lord sees fit to let me leave

Cause if the news ain't good

And you ain't comin back here

I'm gonna stay until my bones have turned to leaves

I'm waiting on a word

Hanging on a prayer

White walls like limbo

They keep my feet on the ground

If I lose my baby

I tell you where they can lay me

Set me down on a cloud

With my soul turned inside out

Well they fixed me up good

But my heart's still bleeding

And there's only one thing in this world to let me heal

Baby open up your eyes and tell me you're not leavin'

And I'm gonna make you feel so good it won't feel real

I'm waiting on a word

Hanging on a prayer

White walls like limbo

They keep my feet on the ground

If I lose my baby

I tell you where they can lay me

Set me down on a cloud

With my soul turned inside out

Set me down on a cloud

With my soul turned inside out
