[Verse 1] I left the mat swept clean Put my shoes by the door Saw the little tracking map Like I’ve seen it before Box cutter on the counter Tape on the table edge I keep checking that hallway Like it might just show instead [Pre-Chorus] Car rolls by My heart jumps up I hear a knock Then it’s not enough Hold that grin Don’t let it show I’m halfway out Before they go [Chorus] Waiting on the box, box, box Waiting on the knock, knock, knock Tell me when it lands, lands, lands I’ll be at the door, door, door Waiting on the box, box, box Waiting on the knock, knock, knock I’m counting every step Till it’s here in my hands [Verse 2] Neighbors drag their bins back in Someone laughs down the lane I’ve got snacks lined up beside me Like I planned this whole campaign I keep peeking through the curtain At the fence and the drive Every sound in the front yard Makes me come alive [Pre-Chorus] Car rolls by My heart jumps up I hear a knock Then it’s not enough Hold that grin Don’t let it show I’m halfway out Before they go [Chorus] Waiting on the box, box, box Waiting on the knock, knock, knock Tell me when it lands, lands, lands I’ll be at the door, door, door Waiting on the box, box, box Waiting on the knock, knock, knock I’m counting every step Till it’s here in my hands [Bridge] Maybe it’s small Maybe it’s huge Maybe it’s the thing That saves my mood I hear the gate I run, I freeze Then I see that van And I can barely breathe [Final Chorus] Waiting on the box, box, box Waiting on the knock, knock, knock Tell me when it lands, lands, lands I’ll be at the door, door, door Waiting on the box, box, box Waiting on the knock, knock, knock Door swings, I lose my mind And I’m smiling all night
