Waiting For You

1

Now that your face is a shadow

Now that your words are thin air,

I think of us at this window 

And think that you’re still there.

I’ll watch for you in the sunset,

I’ll look for you in the mist,

I’ll scan the wide horizons

Till I see the face I once kissed

             

                  Refrain:

                  Waiting for you….

2

Why did you leave while I was sleeping?

Why did you slip off in the night?

Why not wait till next summer 

When you’d be well enough to fight?

I’ll wait for you at sunrise,

I’ll wait for you in the rain,

I’ll walk through darkened landscapes

Still feeling all your pain

                 

                  Refrain

                  Waiting for you….

A Final Chorus:

I’ll wait for you at sunrise,

I’ll wait for you in the rain,

I’ll walk through darkened landscapes

Still feeling all your pain

                

                  Final Refrain

                  Waiting for you….
