Lyrics
Green Room
Walking through doorways, roaming the halls
Long endless corridors, writing on the walls
Gazing in mirrors, adjusting the light
Subtle reflections, & rumours of flight
And I wait for you. And I wait for you?
In the green room?so patiently
In the green room?wait & see.
Behind closed curtains, scanning the stage
Lost in the moments, coming of age
Out of the limelight, learning my lines
Grander illusions, & wrinkles in time
And I wait for you. And I wait for you?
In the green room?intently
In the green room?wait & see.
I will not give up the quest,
But for the moment I will rest
In the green room
I wait so hard
Never wanted anything, any more, any way, at any time,
Never wanted anyone but you?in the green room.
