Quarter Moon lyrics

(Gillian Welch)
Well nothing new has passed this way in a long time
Maybe nothing`s ever gonna come
And nothing seems to grow outside my window
I think I`d better go and get me some
Well, I want to get some of the gold in the hills
That`s making people nervous
You know they get scared of the cold and the chill
Start praying God preserve us
I can`t believe how long I`ve stayed
2 more days till I get paid
And I`ll find that small town boy I`m dating
Tell him I`m done patiently waiting
Patiently waiting
I`ve had fun just holding hands at the movie show
And I`ve had good times tearing up the town
But I`ve spent cold nights waiting
Out front of the movie show
Thinking that half the hands that held me, held me down
Well, I want to get some of the gold in the hills
That`s making people nervous
You know they get scared of the cold and the chill
Start praying God preserve us
I can`t believe how long I`ve stayed
2 more days till I get paid
And I`ll find that small town boy I`m dating
Tell him I`m done patiently waiting
Some folks never get their share of the sweet life
Some just come around a little late
I got this feeling sitting at a stop light
Seems like good things only come to those who
Hit the road when they know what they want
Well, I want to get some of the gold in the hills
That`s making people nervous
You know they get scared of the cold and the chill
Start praying God preserve us
I can`t believe how long I`ve stayed
2 more days till I get paid
And I`ll find that small town boy I`m dating
Tell him I`m done patiently waiting
I`m done patiently waiting
