I'll Wait For You Lyrics - Iii - Joe Nichols

The snow in Montana was three feet high 

The lady at the counter said there ain't no flights 

And so he called her on the telephone 

He said, 'I'll rent a car, and I'll drive home' 

And she said, 'I'll wait for you 

Like I did last year 

At Christmas time with your family here 

And your truck broke down out in San Antone 

And the gifts stayed wrapped until you got home 

Oh, this ain't nothin' new 

Sweetheart, I'll wait for you' 

Now he's on his cell phone in a Coupe De ville 

Talkin' to the one he loves and always will 

His heart is breakin' 'cause she's there alone 

Her heart is achin' ah she wants him home 

She says, 'I'll wait for you like in '68 

When our child was due, but I said, he'll have to wait 

Until his dad gets here and stands by my side 

Remember, dear, our son's first cry 

Oh, this ain't nothin' new 

Sweetheart, I'll wait for you' 

He didn't stop all day to eat a bite 

And he finally got there around midnight 

The doctor said, she's in a better place 

She said to give this you this note just in case
