The Wait
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.
Lost inside a dream, alone
I'm hurt when all is lost
I smile when I have grown
You save
I've waited here so long
To comfort you and help
And to save you from your hell
I pray
The page will turn
A hand pulls away
Let it go, let it go
And close the door and let it be
A time will come, forever there's today
Let it go, let it go
And close your eyes and find a dream
A seconds gone
For now, we'll wait
Send a message when you're home.
Watch with lovin' eyes.
So we're never all alone,
You're safe.
If there's forgiveness in our souls
Then, God, I need it here
To heal the wounds we tear
Today
The page will turn
A hand pulls away
Let it go, let it go
And close the door and let it be
A time will come, forever there's today
Let it go, let it go
And close your eyes and find a dream
A seconds gone
For now, we'll wait
The page will turn
A hand pulls away
Let it go, let it go
And close the door and let it be
A time will come, forever there's today
Let it go, let it go
And close your eyes and find a dream
A seconds gone
For now, we'll wait.
I can't wait no more
Send a message when you're home
I might be off on a few words
But I think it's closer
