compton mcmurry - wait lyrics

Loading...

i sit here awaiting the dawn
long minutes of black creeping on…
racking my brain for the start of a song
when it’s silence alone that i want

silence the serpents who say
my singing will quicken the day
i clutter my soul with a scattered escape
when i’ve only to watch and to wait

wait –
with my soul i wait
don’t be far away!
lord come back for me!
wait –
just in you i’m safe
more than for the rays
of the coming day
i wait

i can’t hide, i can’t cover my shame
i’m for sale, and no one cares to pay
they’re simply content but to sn+gger and spit
at no clothes, no respect, and no name

i can’t hide from the light on my face;
i can’t run from the dawn of the day
so teach me to flee from my wandering ways
to a day where the sun never fades…
wait –
with my soul i wait
don’t be far away!
lord come back for me!
wait –
just in you i’m safe
more than for the rays
of the coming day
i wait
