Waiting

Lyrics for Waiting

I've been waiting for the hurting to stop I've been waiting for the punchline to drop Anytime I hear the music we played I dissolve into a puddle of rain I've been playing down the way that I feel I've been hoping that I don't make it real I've been waiting at the edge of a dream To jump and fly and find my beautiful wings Been waiting for the right time to come To put the best dress back on To catch a favourite song And to find my way home to your love I've been hovering around like a ghost In all the places gone away, left unspoke I've been playing down them penny arcades Celebrating what a big win I've made I've been following the river back home I keep finding out I'm accident prone I was going to write a gratitude list Just got to work out my resentment to it And I'm thinking, and it gets to me Perhaps there's nowhere else that I will ever be I'm wondering and it seems to me That there's nowhere else that I would rather be And if I could be anywhere I'm right here by your side If there was another now, another place and time And if I could be anywhere I'm right here by your side But I keep waiting for the hurting to stop I've been waiting for the punchline to drop I've been waiting 'till forever had come Before I knew it, it had already come and gone I've been waiting on a beautiful dream Forgiving everyone that I've ever been While I'd been playing down them penny arcades I went and found a way to rise up and sing Waiting for the right time to come I put the best dress back on I caught a favourite song And I danced my way home to your love Oh I found my way home to your love And if I could be anywhere I'm right here by your side If there was another now, another place and time And if I could be anywhere I'm right here by your side I've been waiting I've been waiting I've been waiting I've been waiting
