This 1950's inspired lyric popped into my head one morning, wrote it in 10 minutes :)

lyrics

There's a dozen different things that I could do,
a dozen different ways to take my mind off you.
But I'm sitting here alone, waiting for my girl to phone,
yeah I'm sitting all alone waiting for my girl to phone.

When I look at all my options, searching for hope,
It's like I'm looking at the world through a periscope.
And I'm sitting here alone, waiting for my girl to phone,
sitting all alone waiting for my girl to phone.

I could wait forever, but that would do me no good.
We could be together, will somebody tell her we should.

Sometimes it seems my life is passing me by,
no matter what I do or what I try,
I'm sitting all alone waiting for my girl to phone,
I'm just sitting here alone, waiting for my girl to phone.

I could wait forever, but that would do me no good.
We could be together, will somebody tell her we should.

There's a dozen different things that I could do,
a dozen different ways to take my mind off you.
But I'm sitting here alone, waiting for my girl to phone,
yeah I'm sitting all alone waiting for my girl to phone.
