Lyrics
I wait
I?m waiting for you there
Patient as a monk,
Wishing not to scare
I whisper
Right in between your hair
I?m hoping you will hear me
I?m hoping you will care.
I wait
I whisper
I take
I shiver
You try
But I won?t let you lie
I?m waiting on the laughter
I?m waiting on the sunshine
I?m waiting for you to rhyme
In perfect time
I take
The words that cut and tear
And feed them to the wolves
Waiting on their share
I shiver
When you say that you can?t hear
But I know it won?t be long now
Before you break the fear
I wait
I whisper
I take
I shiver
You try
But I won?t let you lie
I?m waiting on the laughter
I?m waiting on the sunshine
I?m waiting for you to rhyme
In perfect time
