Waiting on End
Heartbreak Reservations: A Tale of Waiting and Disappointment
Lyrics
Well you booked a table for
Reservation made for both you and the girl
Her and you
Highlighting that the reservation involves you and the girl
Oh how foolish you were
Expressing regret or disbelief at a past decision
She has a track record too
Suggesting that the girl has a history or reputation
And the only thing she showed up
She only cared about herself when she arrived
Were you
Emphasizing that she didn't show genuine interest in you
You got dolled up
You put effort into looking good
Scrubbed up good
Describing the effort put into appearance
Then you got stood up
Despite efforts, she didn't show up, leaving you stood up
Oh and I feel so sorry for you
Expressing sympathy for your situation
And your head rises
Your anticipation builds up
When you see the door open
Expecting her to enter when the door opens
No it's not gunna be her
Realizing it's not her, dashing hopes
And your head drops slowly
Feeling disappointment as you realize she's running late
Running late you wish she were
Wishing she had arrived, intensifying the disappointment
Then I could tell
Observing the emotional impact on you
Your hearts just broken
Confirming the emotional pain of a broken heart
And the waitress
Shifting focus to the waitress
Who was laughing
The waitress, who was happy, is now involved in the situation
Moments ago
Highlighting the sudden change in the waitress's demeanor
Is now asking you to go
The waitress suggests you leave, acknowledging the awkwardness
You look embarrassed
Describing your visible discomfort or shame
Right down to
Emphasizing the depth of your embarrassment
The core
Getting to the core of your emotions, possibly a deep hurt
Oh you're not falling for it anymore
Indicating that you're not easily fooled or deceived anymore
