Waiting for You

Stand so still against the wall; can you feel that craving

Hands so frayed from the pull; so much worth saving

It’s almost November and we can’t remember

What used to bring so much life in May

Seems any day now, ‘cause we’ve been saying how

We’ve got to give this all away

Lay so still in this fall; can you feel that shaking

Now stand up and be small; none for the taking

There’s no one to blame ‘cause we gave it away

And there’s nothing to say now just hold my hand

And just come closer ‘cause there’s something for us

If we just listen we’ll hear it say

I, I’ve been waiting for you. I’ve been waiting, waiting, waiting for you

And I, I started, started without you,

But I’m waiting, waiting, waiting for you

I just need you, I just need you.

Can’t see through this new wall; building it higher

Friends of fear have such gall; no room desire

And how many ghosts do we keep making toasts to

And when will this wine go down with no sting

Open these doors; can we hear our hearts

As they try to speak and say the same thing

I, I’ve been waiting for you. I’ve been waiting, waiting, waiting for you

And I, I started, started without you,

But I’m waiting, waiting, waiting for you

I, I’ve been waiting for you. I’ve been waiting, waiting, waiting for you

And I, I started, started without you,

But I’m waiting, waiting, waiting for you

I just need you, I just need you.

Listen to me; I’m telling you, in this change, what I decide

Talk to me ‘cause I’m listening; you no longer have to hide

This gift, this gift; here we are…still alive

It’s alright, it’s alright if we’re blind for a while

‘Cause I, I’ll be waiting for you. I’ll be waiting, waiting, waiting for you

And I, I started, started without you, but I’m waiting, waiting, waiting for you

I, I’ll be waiting for you. I’ll be waiting, waiting, waiting for you

And I, I started, started without you, but I’m waiting, waiting, waiting for you

I just need you, I just need you.
