| Childhood dreams, make believe
|
| Nothing’s gonna break your heart
|
| Those who wait soon discover
|
| Everything falls apart
|
| Baby I was so naive
|
| Thinking I could brave the cold
|
| Just get me out of here
|
| Before we both get too old
|
| Tell me why
|
| (I'm in the waiting)
|
| Why’s it gotta take so long
|
| (In the waiting for you)
|
| Tell me why
|
| (I'm in the waiting)
|
| Why’s it gotta take so long
|
| (In the waiting for you)
|
| Please don’t take that part of me
|
| I never want to give away
|
| Run me through the things we do
|
| I just need a reason to stay
|
| Far away to a vacant room
|
| Where I can still see the shore
|
| Close my eyes to a candle burning
|
| Knowing you will lock the door
|
| Tell me why
|
| (I'm in the waiting)
|
| Why’s it gotta take so long
|
| (In the waiting for you)
|
| Tell me why
|
| (I'm in the waiting)
|
| Why’s it gotta take so long
|
| (In the waiting for you)
|
| Don’t disappear, don’t leave me here
|
| Watching for the curtains to fall
|
| Show me how you need me now
|
| And nothing else matters at all
|
| We’ve been down this road so long
|
| Hangin' on a twisted turn
|
| We should be the first to know
|
| We’re never too old to learn
|
| Tell me why
|
| (I'm in the waiting)
|
| Why’s it gotta take so long
|
| (In the waiting for you)
|
| Tell me why
|
| (I'm in the waiting)
|
| Why’s it gotta take so long
|
| (In the waiting for you) |
