"Des Moines" lyrics

"Des Moines"

I'm sitting here wondering
Waiting, turning
Forgetting, hoping
Someday you'll come back
It's wishful thinking
Pretending, escaping
Dreaming, denying
Foolish to think you are thinking of me

It's not the weekends
It's not the evenings
It's not Des Moines
New York City
Cincinnati
A dining room
It's you

I'm telling myself
Move on, get out
Hang up, turn off
Is this what you wanted?

It's not the weekends
It's not the evenings
It's not Des Moines
New York City
Cincinnati
A dining room
It's you

It's not the weekends
It's not the evenings
It's not Des Moines
New York City
Cincinnati
A dining room
It's you

It's not the weekends
It's not the evenings
It's not Des Moines
New York City
Cincinnati
A dining room
It's you

It's not the weekends
It's not the evenings
It's not Des Moines
New York City
Cincinnati
A dining room
It's you
