How can pain be sweet, even for a while? How come I’m full grown, yet feel like a child How can you control me with a single look? How can I express these things in words or books?
Where language fails music speaks So I came to sing you this song Tell you I’ll wait for you a hundred years Let me in, darlin’ let me in
And I will stand, waitin’ for the dawn Slippin’ through the claws of space and time You built a wall on my sandy shore But my waves will open up the door Oh, but my waves will open up the door Hey, yeah-yeah-yeah
Mmh-mmh-mmh…
I know you’ve been hurt, love can take its toll How can we be sane, yet so out of control? I don’t even think I ever made a choice To live and die just on the promise of your voice
Where language fails music speaks So I came to sing you this song Tell you I’ll wait for you a hundred years Let me in, darlin’ let me in
And I will stand, waitin’ for the dawn Slippin’ through the claws of space and time You built a wall on my sandy shore But my waves will open up the door Oh, but my waves will open up the door Singing
I will wait I will follow I will never be the same I will wait I will follow I will never be the same I will wait I will follow I will never be the same I will wait I will follow I will never be the same
I will wait I will follow I will never be the same
