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 but 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
In 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
In just a little while, they'll wish that they were silent
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 mind
