she said
thank you quite much
I really am touched
but I'm afraid my hand is held
you see I'm seeing a man
I don't think he'd understand
I think you know what I'm trying to say
it's a sweet proposition
but you see my position
it's not your face or your feet
maybe sometime our hands will entwine
but for now I'm afraid you've been beat
he's walking in Limbo
he's walking in Limbo
he can see heaven but he can't touch the gate
and angel came down and said I'm afraid you must wait
now he's walking in Limbo
and he's all alone
he just stepped away
stored her answer away
looked down and gave a sigh
now he just sits alone
in a room with no phone
what use is it anyway
now that he's walking in Limbo
he's walking in Limbo
he can't go forward and he won't go back
he can't bring himself to another track
now he's walking in Limbo
and he's all alone
at night he would walk
and to himself he would talk
and then laugh at himself the next day
he said it's been so many times
that I've made these words rhyme
that I'm boring my self half to death
now that I'm walking in Limbo
he's walking in Limbo
he can see heaven but he can't touch the gate
and angel came down and said I'm afraid you must wait
now he's walking in Limbo
and he's all alone
