Grizzly Bear - While You Wait for the Others (feat. Michael McDonald) lyrics

While you wait for the others To make it all worthwhile All your useless pretentions Are weighing on my time You could beg for forgiveness As long as you like Or just wait out the evening You'll only leave me dry Yes, you'll only leave me dry So I'll ask you kindly to make your way And what was there? The perfect glare We all fall through While you wait on the answers That I'll pretend to find Keeping up with emotions Still occupies our time You could hope for some substance As long as you like Or just wait out the evening And always ask me why Yes, you'll only leave me dry So I'll ask you kindly to make your way And what was left? The perfect glare We all fall through And all we want, want, want, want, want, want, want, want Want, want, want, want, want, want Want, want, want, want Want, want, want And what was there? And what was there? And what wasn't there?
