Waiting For The Day |
| Well here I am, back in town |
| Just as the night is comin' down |
| Warm wind blowin' through the trees |
| I watch them swing, I watch them sway |
| Lie here waiting for the day. |
| Sleep won’t come, I need a drink |
| Stop my head, don’t wanna think |
| Wishing I could be with you |
| But I know you’re so far away |
| And I’m here waiting for the day. |
| Water of life pour your light down on me Take me out of this darkness, sweet star of the sea |
| Water so sweet you can open my eyes |
| You can bring down the rain on this desert so dry. |
| Out on the street, shadows fall |
| Silence speaks, I hear it call |
| City of the living dead |
| Count the lights on the motorway |
| Lie here waiting for the day (alright). |
| Water of life pour your light down on me Take me out of this darkness, sweet star of the sea |
| Water so sweet you can open my eyes |
| You can bring down the rain on this desert so dry. |
| Yes here I am, back in town |
| Just as the night is comin' down |
| Warm wind blowin' through the trees |
| I watch them swing, I watch them sway |
| Lie here waiting for the day (alright) |
