I long to hold you in my arms
And claim you for my own
But a soul as free as yours
Ought to be left to roam
Until it’s time to settle down
And find your way back home
Where I’ll be waiting
Arms spread wide
Where I’ll be waiting
To take you inside
The sands of time are dropping
An hourglass a day
As I peer out along the line
I hope to find my way
Though should I see a lonely grain
All the glasses I will break
Cause I’m not waiting
To be gone
Cause I’m not waiting
For a sunless dawn
Out across the starry sky
The moon holds its head high
I see its face reflect my own
As the tears come to my eyes
I know you see the same night lights
As you watch their beauty shine
And we’re both waiting
For the sun
And we’re both waiting
For new days to come
