You know how friends are funny when we're just clowning around
You know how friends get crazy when we can't stop messing around
We always leave a seat open for you when we go out, out on this town
We always drink a couple for you when we're all out, when we go out

Just think of us together whenever you're down
Are you okay? Are you all right?
You know that I wait and I wait and I wait

Remember when our heads were almost about to explode
Do you remember the three jokes, the only ones that you know
We always leave a light on for you 'case [bad word] back home
We always leave a key hidden for you 'case [bad word] back home
In case nobody's home

Just think of us together whenever you're down
Are you okay? Are you all right?
Do you count down the days like I count down the nights?

Baby I wait and I wait and I wait

Remember nights when our friends had to help carry us home
Remember times when we'd wake up in places we didn't know
There was always a light on for us, always guiding us home
To help find our way home

Just think of us together whenever you're down
Are you all right? Are you okay?
I kept our room just the same as when you went away
Are you all right? Are you okay?
I kept the pictures of us before you went away
Baby I wait, and I wait, and I wait
Baby I hope and I pray you're okay
