Waiting on a Word

Intro

(Ooh)

(Ooh)

Verse 1

Slipped away while I was drifting

To a place where shadows start shifting

Saw a being looking so strange

Telling me my whole life would change

Long ago a girl you once knew

She is coming back home to you

Pre-Chorus

I just shook my head

And he laughed at the words I said

Finding it so amusing

That I found the truth confusing

He assured me it was real

That was how he made me feel

Chorus

Waitin on a word

From a dream that I heard

Soon could be a month or a day

Soon could be a world away

Is it just a week or a year

I am waitin for her to appear

Verse 2

Suddenly the bunk bed started shaking

One of the roommates left me waking

Reached for a pen in the dark

Leaving a desperate purple mark

Wrote it down right on my skin

I hope so before the light comes in

Pre-Chorus

I just shook my head

And he laughed at the words I said

Finding it so amusing

That I found the truth confusing

He assured me it was real

That was how he made me feel

Chorus

Waitin on a word

From a dream that I heard

Soon could be a month or a day

Soon could be a world away

Is it just a week or a year

I am waitin for her to appear

Bridge

Many months are gone and passed

How long will this silence last

What is soon in the eyes of God

Underneath this heavy sky I trod

Is it a cycle for Saturn to orbit

My lonely heart cannot absorb it

Chorus

Waitin on a word

From a dream that I heard

Soon could be a month or a day

Soon could be a world away

Is it just a week or a year

I am waitin for her to appear
