A picture of someone that I used to know
got my head all spinning, thinking of a time so long ago
I do believe in happiness to some extent
even when the sky is grey and the air is weeping with laments
I'll be longing for
the day that you will once again be knocking on my door
Yes it's sheer desperation
That kept me going for so long
But there's no consolation
If you don't return and lead the way again
The meantime is by far the time I hate the most
look over your shoulder and accept you're looking for a ghost
Yes time will heal our wounds but still there is a gap
between the possibilities that you with ease drop in my lap
Waving with my arms
hope for your attention from a place so far away
Longing for the day that you'll be marching by my side
Yes it's sheer desperation
That kept me going for so long
But there's no consolation
If you don't return to lead the way again
A flaring light illuminates
a dark and endless night
be careful what you're wishing for my dear
I will endure until I'm sure
that you will be alright
we won't be giving up without a fight
Yes it's sheer desperation
That kept me going for so long
But there's no consolation
If you don't return to lead the way again
got my head all spinning, thinking of a time so long ago
I do believe in happiness to some extent
even when the sky is grey and the air is weeping with laments
I'll be longing for
the day that you will once again be knocking on my door
Yes it's sheer desperation
That kept me going for so long
But there's no consolation
If you don't return and lead the way again
The meantime is by far the time I hate the most
look over your shoulder and accept you're looking for a ghost
Yes time will heal our wounds but still there is a gap
between the possibilities that you with ease drop in my lap
Waving with my arms
hope for your attention from a place so far away
Longing for the day that you'll be marching by my side
Yes it's sheer desperation
That kept me going for so long
But there's no consolation
If you don't return to lead the way again
A flaring light illuminates
a dark and endless night
be careful what you're wishing for my dear
I will endure until I'm sure
that you will be alright
