So here you are leaving again
When things start to get real
I'm done with doing your ***** work
And showing you how I feel

You know I can do much better
I won't take this anymore
Ill take  my chances
There's plenty of opened doors

So heres to the yellow taxi cab
I bet he makes his living from you
It'd save you some money
If you bought the line
And took time to think it through
Theres more to life than the backseat
You know those needles won't do
So heres to the yellow taxi cab
And the road that ends with you

You know you can't hold
A chain on me
I won't let you drag me down
I'm through with taking
The fall for you
I'm tired of being your clown

You know I can do much better
I won't take this anymore
Ill take  my chances
There's plenty of opened doors

So heres to the yellow taxi cab
I bet he makes his living from you
It'd save you some money
If you bought the line
And took time to think it through
Theres more to life than the backseat
You know those needles won't do
So heres to the yellow taxi cab
And the road that ends with you

The  Skies they were  Volcanic
 The leaves so crisp so ashen
 The trees they were 
 Bare and bitter
The trees Naked and brittle
It was thro the late November
During my most hindered year
Spent down by the lake of Merideth
Where lovers claim Heaven
By the banks of Harbor Bay
The frozen wave of Merideth
The chilling wind of Harbor Bay
Here once I found my soul
Thro the misted woods
I roamed alone 
Through an alley of Oak  
I found my soul 
These were yond
In the days of Yore 
On that day
my soul grew chilling
Spent abruptly by the shore 
On that day in my soul 
There was a yearning 
Spent endlessly by the shore
In the innocent days of yore

Some people think its a book
That its just an old wives tale
But they don't know
What you went through
To save my soul from hell

But I know you moved the mountains
And I know you calmed the seas
Just because God loved me

Some people think youre an idol
A fire burning in the night
Some people are in denial
Even though they've seen you
With their eyes

But I know you're coming
Lord I know you're coming soon

And im ready, im waiting
For loves warm embrace
I'm seeking, im praying
To see a smile on your face
When you call me,
When you take me home
And you tell me that I am your own

Sometimes I make mistakes
And somewhere I've drawn the line
But I'm human what can i say
And I'm built by your design

I know you made me in your image
And I know you already knew my name
And You take away my blame

And im ready, im waiting
For loves warm embrace
I'm seeking, im praying
To see a smile on your face
When you call me,
When you take me home
And you tell me that I am your own

Yeah

Lord I'm ready, I'm waiting
For loves warm embrace
I'm seeking, I'm praying
To see a smile on your face
When you call me,
When you take me home
And you tell me that I am your own
