Lyrics
All strung out
You're sitting at the window
As this winter chill
Brings tears to your eyes
These solid days of mine are emptier by the hour
I'm fading swiftly
As the fire dies
And I won't turn back
Won't change my mind
Cos he's been waiting all this time
Is it a source of faith
That I see in his eyes
Does he know
I've been waiting all my life?
So hold me close
For one last time
I've got to go
And seek these dreams
I've been setting aside
You know that
I've been gone so long already
Now it's time for tears and saying goodbye
All cried out
You're sitting at the window
As my plane takes off
For sunnier skies
And I can see you now
More clearly than I ever did
The hardest thing is
You know I was right
