I've been waiting around all night
Your warm kiss is on my mind
A piece of you is all I've got
But the whole damn thing is what I want

I've been waiting around here all night long
Holding onto these memories until they come undone
My hands are tied...

Telephone is ringing by my bed
I pick it on up and the line goes dead
I splash summer water on my face
Clears my mind, I'm out of this place

I've been waiting around here all night long
Holding onto these memories until they come undone
My hands are tied...

My nerves are frayed and I've had enough
I'm a lot afraid that it'll hurt too much
And I can't seem to stop at all
I'm plain wore through waiting for your call

I've been waiting around here all night long
Holding onto these memories until they come undone
My hands are tied...

Want you round here all the time
Just can't seem to shake you off my mind
My hands are tied...

Gin Blossoms is an American rock band formed in 1987 in Tempe, Arizona. They rose to prominence following the 1992 release of their first major label album, New Miserable Experience, and the first single released from that album, “Hey Jealousy”. “Hey Jealousy” became a Top 25 hit and went gold, and New Miserable Experience eventually went quadruple platinum; four other charting singles were released from the album. The band’s follow-up album, Congratulations I’m Sorry (1996), went platinum and the single “As Long as It Matters” was nominated for a Grammy Award. Gin Blossoms broke up in 1997. Since reuniting in 2001, the band has released Major Lodge Victory in 2006, No Chocolate Cake in 2010, and Mixed Reality in 2018.
