Wait So Long Lyrics

We hold our breath and wait to breathe The world turns, we're on our knees

If time runs out, we'll break apart And never finish the greatest start

With all that's water telling us what to do

All the quietness inside whispers I love you, I love you, I love you

What is it that you want?

What would you try to say

If all there is is space

Is time the only real delay

What troubles your dear heart

And what will others say

Can the crashing of words

Turn our hearts to sand

And will the waves on any shore

Be what I call my best friend

My best friend

My best friend

My best friend

My best friend

It's been so long

Since I've been inspired

Since I've looked into your eyes

Into your eyes

We wait so long

To watch our lives pass us by

As we watch ourselves die

We wait so long

Why do we wait so long?

All we have to show for is tears

For these many many years

We wait so long

We hold our breath and wait to breathe

The world turns, we're on our knees

If time runs out we'll break apart

And never get to the greatest part

With all that's water telling us what to do

All the quietness inside whispers I love you

We wait so long

To watch our lives pass us by

As we watch ourselves die

We wait so long

Why do we wait so long?

All we have to show for is tears

For these many many years

We wait so long

We wait so long
