Song For Ben

you said you'd be around
but you just left the town
now we're trying to reason the situation
i walked right through your door
i swear it wasn't there before
i thought it was just my imagination

now your brother is driving the car
no one knows just who you are
when you get back you better stay up past ten

i've been waiting for so long
tell me just what's going on

maybe next year you
can stay a month or two
when luke gets hitched and eric graduates
we'll jam just like before
we'll watch the revolution score
maybe you can fall while standing on your skates

who's going to be the sane one
when we're out camping and having fun
and who is going to start our fire again

i've been waiting for so long
tell me what's going on

man, you're missed around here
it's been over a year

i've been waiting for so long
tell me what's going on

it's been a while since i've seen your face
we need you back in this place
