(Music: Marillion Lyrics: Steve Hogarth)
|
|
I lie awake at night, listening to you sleeping
|
I hear the darkness breathe
|
And the rain against the window
|
|
After all this time
|
Cynical and jaded
|
All the stones are diamonds
|
All the blues are faded
|
|
Everything I've been through
|
All I've seen and heard
|
Spend to much of my life
|
In the spiritual third world
|
But you came and brought the rain here
|
|
Something waiting to happen
|
Something learning to fly
|
We can talk without talking
|
From inside to inside
|
I have waited to feel this
|
For the whole of my life
|
|
We took ourselves apart
|
We talked about our faces
|
You said you didn't like yours
|
I said I disagree
|
|
I keep the pieces separate
|
I clutch them in my coat
|
A jigsaw of an angel
|
I can do when I feel low
|
|
From emptiness and dryness
|
The famine of our days
|
Watch the heavens open
|
Wash it all away
|
You came and brought the rain here
|
|
Something waiting to happen
|
Something learning to fly
|
On the edge of exploding
|
Something wild and alive
|
Something waiting to happen
|
Anytime that you like
|
I have waited to feel this
|
For the whole of my life
|
