the candle burns out
the oil in the lamps nearly dry
but still we wait
oh yes, wait we do
•
the sun sinks lower into the clouds
the day grows a little darker
our shadows, a little larger
but still we wait
•
the song starts to slow
the laughter, it slowly dies down
the crowd begins to disperse
we wait
•
the dust begins to settle
we begin to come up on the horizon
the skies get a little clearer
and oh we wait
•
the first drop, the first drizzle
the first shower
the first taste, the first look
the first fitting
•
the first day, the first time
the first touch
the first kiss, the first look
and yes, we wait.
