In these streets where my soul is no longer mine,
In these houses where my life is no longer mine,
In these roads where everything gets left behind,
I'm watching and waiting
Always crying and calling
To the first dawn of the light to rise
Followed by the last rays of light setting behind the
skies.
And when my legs will lose the strength to stand tall,
And when my hands will lose the force to make my world,
And when my eyes will lose the faith in what they're
seeing,
I will always stand still and watch
And always fall down on my knees and cry
For the first sign of light to rise
Followed by the last sign from the skies above.
And when everything will fall apart,
And there'll be no way to get back,
You'll see me standing there,
Trapped forever in my stone-shaped body,
One face looking backwards
The other is looking forward
In hope and in faith and in hate and in shame,
For sins of the past are the mistakes of the future
And the present is not so simple,
For it is lost.
And I will always wait and watch
Always cry and call
For the last chance to make it all right
Before everything will fall apart.
For I know everything
And I know nothing
Of what will come opun us,
Though you'll always hear me say through the dark shadows of
time:
"Come what may
For I will wait
Forever". |
