Waiting for Elizabeth
Lyrics and music by Joe Merrick © 2004

She woke me with the news on a holiday morn With a whisper and a tear of our first child to be born
While I was having a dream of a pigtail girl
Laughing at me as I showed her the ways of the world

I see her kicking inside I hear her heart beating in time

We’re in joyful anticipation Everybody’s holding their breath
Waiting for Elizabeth And she’ll know love with no limitation
Everybody’s holding their breath
Waiting for Elizabeth

Some people tell me what they think it’s about Complaining of the things that they now do without Well everybody’s got a little something to say
I just wonder who she’ll look like on her birthday

Now my life is just a waiting game
But pretty soon it will never be the same
It's hard to believe that I could be so blessed
And that I love someone I haven’t even met yet..not yet
