Waiting By The Payphone

Official song lyrics: ‘Waiting By The Payphone’ by Abu Sayed. Original writing and composition.

The midnight rain is falling down
I hear your voice in this empty town
A pocket of change and a ringing line
I need your body close to mine
A yellow streetlight shining through the haze
My mind is wandering in a midnight maze
The static hums like a steady beat
I want your shadow walking down my street
Every second feels like a fading spark
I am reaching out through the quiet dark
Just pick it up and say you will come around
Before my heart hits the heavy ground
I am waiting by the payphone in the cold
Got a burning story that has to be told
Your lips on my skin are all I crave
You are the only memory I want to save
Calling out your number into the night
Into the night
Craving your touch by the neon light
By the neon light
The midnight air is freezing on my face
I want to feel your warm and soft embrace
My leather jacket still smells like your hair
I trace your name inside the chilly air
Every second feels like a fading spark
I am reaching out through the quiet dark
Just pick it up and say you will come around
Before my heart hits the heavy ground
I am waiting by the payphone in the cold
Got a burning story that has to be told
Your lips on my skin are all I crave
You are the only memory I want to save
Calling out your number into the night
Into the night
Craving your touch by the neon light
By the neon light
The dial tone fades into the pouring rain
I feel the fire rushing through my vein
You know Sayed will always wait for you
To make these whispered promises come true
My lonely shadow dances on the wall
I need you here to catch me when I fall
I am standing here on the corner of our street
Hoping to hear the rhythm of your feet
I am waiting by the payphone in the cold
Got a burning story that has to be told
Your lips on my skin are all I crave
You are the only memory I want to save
