Through the wind and the rain I hear my mother's cry |
|
She says: |
|
"I know my baby's out there |
|
I just couldn't bear t |
|
o ask her why |
|
From my womb into the world |
|
Lord, I wish the child would call |
|
You know I'm needing some company |
|
She makes my life so full." |
|
Take my advice: go ahead and live your own life |
|
Everybody's waiting for someone to come home. |
|
Like the fire waits for the sand |
|
This world is burning with the tension of human hands |
|
Waiting to be cleansed, waiting for their ace of spades |
|
They say: |
|
"I sure hope he's coming |
|
'Cause I feel like I've just been saved." |
|
Take my advice: go ahead and live while you're alive |
|
Everybody's waiting for someone to come home. |
|
"Come to me and cleanse my soul..." |
|
I'm free, I'm free... |
|
"Only with you am I whole..." |
|
Can't you see that I am me??? |
|
"I'll be waiting by the window..." |
|
I'll be heading for the door... |
|
I was driving down highway 85, yeah |
|
Had to pull off the road just to hear my radio coming in clearer |
|
Lord, this life's so full, I said, why do we ask for more? |
|
While we're waiting for the man to come |
|
We forgot what he's coming for |
|
Take my advice: go ahead and live while you're alive |
|
Everybody's waiting for someone to come home... |
|
"I'll be waiting by the window..." |
|
Everybody's waiting for someone to come home... |
|
"I'll be waiting by the window..." |
|
Everybody's waiting for someone to come home... |
|
To come home |
