Lyrics
ANDRE C Witzel/ Jones
Got a pretty lot on a dead end block with two cars in the garage-
My husband's tossin' a ball with our little doll by the swingset in our
backyard
And I'm looking out my window -toward your end of the street
You're raking up the autumn leaves- I'm crumbling with defeat
You always wave hello- when I come walking by
We don't say too much, I know -No, we say something with our eyes...
Well I'm holding on to what I know, it's the right choice- yes, I'm sure
Oh, Andre... Andre... Sometimes I wish for more, I wish for more
Family dinners and rented videos fill my empty space
And my daughter laughing on her daddy's knee still puts a smile on
my face
But I'll keep looking out my window- toward your end of the street
'Til I see you with another, and I know your life's complete
And I'll run to check the mail when I know you're outside
We don't say too much at all- no we say something with our smile....
Well I'm holding on to what is safe, it's the right choice- yes, I'm sure
Oh, Andre, Sweet Andre... Sometimes I wish for more, I wish for more
You see there's a part of me that truly loves my husband
I just wish the sparks would fly when he wants me...to want him....
Oh, no.....
Guess I'm lucky he's been good to me- He's a good man, yes I'm
sure-
Oh Andre, beautiful Andre, though I should count my blessings
Andre,
Sometimes I wish for more, I wish for more,
Andre I wished for more-
I wished for more...
Got a pretty lot on a dead end block with two cars in the garage
My husband's tossin' a ball with our little doll by the swing set in
our back yard...
