Waiting for the Hype to Subside

Come home
When the party’s over
When the tears have dried.
Come on home
I’ll still be here
Waiting for the hype to subside.


Come back
When the crowds have left you
On the falling tide.
You’re not alone
I’ll be here for you
Waiting for the hype to subside.

Find me
When the light is fading
When the roar has died
To a monotone.
You’ll find me silent
And waiting for the hype to subside.

If only everyone had someone to say that to them. All choked up now.
