Waiting In The Wings
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I need you like freedom
I feel you like rain
I see you like silver rails across an endless plain
And I know there are moments
You feel as I do
That's why I'm waiting for you
This time around I won't push for an answer
Both of us need to be sure
To be strong
When the moment comes
I'll be your dancer
I'll be your singer
And your song
When your heart is weary
When you want a love with no strings
I will be here waiting
Waiting in the wings
Waiting in the wings
A natural dreamer
A maverick soul
How close can I be to you
And still not lose control?
And as close as the ocean
As near as the sky
As near as the tears I don't cry
Maybe a fool has been drowned in a vision
Hung up to dry in the teeth of the wind
Believing in the truth of your decisions
That's all there is until the end
When your heart is weary
When you want a love with no strings
I will be here waiting. I'll be waiting
Waiting in the wings
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting
When your heart is weary
When you want a love with no strings
I will be here waiting
Waiting in the wings
When your heart is weary
When you want a love with no strings
I will be here waiting
Waiting in the wings
When your heart is weary
When you want a love with no strings
I will be here waiting
Waiting in the wings
