I was far away from here, felt like a million miles,
Under unfamiliar skies,
In more than one way, far from dreams I’d dreamed,
I’d seen the blinding light,
There was hope, but was there time,
Slow trigger starting line, and each day of waiting seemed eternity
You never left my side,
You never left my mind.
So they will open up their mouths…but, really, who are they?
And soon enough they’ll fade away,
Only blind, and soon they’ll have to see,
Fear like a cancer spreads,
How many more will drop their eyes, lift their hands, and wait to die?
And how much time to spend to see who stands?
But I think I know the way; I got a promise on the mind and I’ll be looking for what’s mine,
Sovereign stillness whispers trust in me.
In just a little while, they’ll wish that they were silent.
Keep waiting,
I’ll be right on time,
Keep waiting,
I’ll be right on time,
Keep waiting,
I’ll be right on time,
Keep waiting,
I’ll be right on time.
Just a little while, they’ll wish that they were silent.
And when they try to take your eyes off of me, remember,
And when they try to take your eyes off of me, remember me.
Keep waiting,
I’ll be right on time,
Keep waiting,
I’ll be right on time,
Keep waiting,
I’ll be right on time,
Keep waiting,
I’ll be right on time,
Keep waiting, (waiting)
Keep waiting,
I’ll be right on time.
Just a little while, they’ll wish that they were silent.
