lyrics

Elusive and intangible
Expectations slip from my grasp
As hope and doubt and pain and patience
Twirl and dance their mocking dance

Searching searching frantically
for distraction,
Anything to keep at bay
The underlying, unrelenting,
helplessness
of an uncertain “someday”

Staring up at different ceilings
In a circumstance undreamt of
Craving for voice
Grateful for words
But sometimes words are not enough
Not enough

Like a walking ghost making its way
In and out of daylight
Forcing smiles through countless days
Dreading nights unending

Eternity unfolds by seconds
As time itself slows down
From clock to calendar
And back again
It would be all too easy to drown

But after it all
If she waits like I wait
Enduring, enduring
Until the end

And somewhere beyond despair
If she waits like I wait
Forever means nothing
If she waits
If she waits
