I’ve been waiting for answers I’ve been waiting a long, long time If I open the door won’t you come inside
My heart’s begging for mercy How much longer can I sit still and be Hopeful and doubting and torn inside
And all this time I’ve been staring at the minute hand Oh what a crime That I can’t seem to understand that life is in the waiting
I’ve been working on patience Trying to trust in the timing of my tiny existence I come alive I sat still in the twilight I found peace in the quiet things How could I wish away all the in between
And all this time I’ve been staring at the minute hand Oh what a crime That I can’t seem to understand that life is in the waiting
And I find there’s no knowing of a right time No it could keep you waiting all night for it So hold tight Don’t lose sleep over the half-life Know that everything is alright Just like it is
And all this time I’ve been staring at the minute hand Oh what a crime That I can’t seem to understand that life is in the waiting
