Wisdom Waits Songtext
von Hurrah!

For the love of a good woman
Did I stab so many knives in your back
For the love of a good woman
I guess subtlety was something I lacked
For the love of a good woman
Should I confess all of those passionate crimes
For the love of a good woman
Should I confess all of those false alibis

But I never turned truth away
And I never tried tempting fate
Did I ever say wisdom waits
For someone so great
For someone so great


For the love of a good woman
I tried everything embarrassment can
For the love of a good woman
I tried violence, tried purposive lies
For the love of a good woman
I hid my blushes and I softened the blows
For the love of a good woman
I laughed out loud when all my greedness did show

Still I never turned truth away
And I never tried tempting fate
Did I ever say wisdom waits
For someone so great
For someone so great

So many nights I left you stranded
So many nights I left you so alone
So many nights I gave you nothing but heartache
But all the time I gave you sweet, sweet love

So many nights I left you stranded
So many nights I left you so alone
So many nights I gave you nothing but heartache
But all the time I gave you sweet, sweet love

But did I ever turn truth away
Did I ever try tempting fate
Did I ever say wisdom waits
For someone so great
For someone so great


So many nights I left you stranded
So many nights I left you so alone
So many nights I gave you nothing but heartache
But all the time I gave you sweet, sweet love

So many nights I left you stranded
So many nights I left you so alone
So many nights I gave you nothing but heartache
But all the time I gave you sweet, sweet love

Sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet love

For the love of a good woman
For the love of a good woman
For the love of a good woman

Will I ever find
For the love of a good woman

Will I ever find
Will I ever find
Will I ever find
Will I ever find
Will I ever find
Will I ever find
Will I ever find
