Somebody Waits
Now
I think I know why
You sounded so strange on the telephone
It's hard
And you discover
What keeps you going keeps you on your own
I dream somewhere
I thought the smoke might never clear
And I hide it all behind
In the cigarettes and tears
Somebody waits for the time I know
It never comes
You get yourself so high
And you come down feeling blue
One day you wakeup
Realize you've had enough
A thousand shining moments
Awaiting just to happen
To you
To you
To you
Wait
Until you're stronger
No sense starting when you're down so low
It takes
My heart
A little longer
See the point of finally letting go
Lose your touch
Out there standing in the rain
Well, it's all too much
Feel like slipping down again
Somebody waits for the time I know
It never comes
You get yourself so high
Then you come down feeling blue
One day you wakeup
And realize you've had enough
A thousand shining moments
Awaiting just to happen
To you
Ohh to you
To you
Somebody waits for the time I know
It never comes
Get yourself so high
And you come down feeling blue
One day you wake up
And realize you've had enough
A thousand shining moments
I hope someday they happen to you
Oh to you
Oh to you
You
