She waits alone She gets tired As the day falls down She seems uninspired She won't wait Much longer And the tears held back Make her stronger In the meantime I get open eyed To my lowly state of mind The kindest thing That she's seen Is an open mouth Without a scream At her feet Like water The reflection there
Is getting darker In the meantime I get open eyed To my lowly state of mind If I can't hear her Will I ever know A love that's meant to grow All my life I've wondered how The things I've been Could make a difference in the end But every day it seems more clear I don't know how I'd make it through If you weren't here
