When

Intro

Verse 1

Moonlight tracing lines across the floor

I’m wide awake, still counting every door

Thinking of you again

In the silence where the stars begin

The shadows dance, but they don't know my name

And every night, the question stays the same.

Verse 2

The coffee’s cold, the clock begins to chime

I’m just a witness to the passing time

I see you in the glass

Watching the seasons and the strangers pass

Do you ever stop and think of me?

Or am I just a ship lost on your sea?

Chorus

When?

When will the day arrive?

When?

When will we come alive?

These empty hands are reaching for your gold

A quiet heart is waiting to be yours to hold.

Instrumental Break

Verse 3

Night birds singing low beneath the leaves

About a hope that no one else perceives

I’ve memorized your ghost

The way you smile, the things I love the most

I’m waiting in the light

Between the dreaming and the lonely night.

Verse 4

Every letter that I never sent

Every hour that I’ve lonely spent

Is a brick upon the wall

Waiting for the day you’ll make it fall

I’m standing where the ocean meets the land

With a thousand secrets in my hand.

Chorus

When?

When will the day arrive?

When?

When will we come alive?

These empty hands are reaching for your gold

A quiet heart is waiting to be yours to hold.

Bridge

Is it tomorrow, or is it forevermore?

I’m pacing circles on this wooden floor

The ink is dry, the pages have been turned

But there are lessons that I haven't learned

Every breath I take, and every sigh

Is just a question whispered to the sky.

(Guitar Solo)

(Final Chorus)

When?

When will the day arrive?

When?

When will we come alive?

These empty hands are reaching for your gold

A quiet heart is waiting to be yours to hold.

Outro

Just waiting...

Just wondering...

In the hollow of the night

Until the morning light.

When will you be mine?

When...

Only when.
