Waiting

Vivid dreams of you and me

Still live inside my head

A fateful day and suddenly

You’d come back to me

I’d feel your hand and once again

This weakened man could fin’lly stand

with solid ground beneath my feet

Chorus:

Oh the lonely call of waiting here

And the quiet fall of all my fears

Try to crowd out the sound, of your promise ringing down

That you’ll be back for me

Life’s a long and bumpy road

we’ve got no choice to go

When someday we’re all old and gray

and led another’s way

Wanting to be alive and free

but death still holding onto me

Longing for dawn - your new day

Oh the lonely call of waiting here

and the quiet fall of all my fears

try to crowd out the sound, of your promise ringing down

that you’ll be back for me

Bridge:

How long, O how long my love?

We wait for your song from above

And the day will break and the mountains shake

And all our waiting ends

Ending

And we’ll run, run, run

We will finally see all your glory on your new day

On the day when all our waiting ends
