Is There Anybody Waiting

Verse 1

Grey

Mist on the river

Slow

Silent water sliding past the reeds

I watch it go

I let it go

The heavy hammer of the clock

Striking twelve

The city sleeps while I wake

Chorus

Is there anybody waiting

Waiting for the tide

Is there anybody waiting

Down by the riverside

Is there anybody waiting

Waiting for the tide

Post-Chorus

Ooh

Ooh

Verse 2

Cold

Stone beneath my palms

Rough

Worn away by centuries of rain

Nothing stays the same

Nothing feels the same

Broken bricks and bitter blame

Stacked up high

The wall is much too wide

Chorus

Is there anybody waiting

Waiting for the tide

Is there anybody waiting

Down by the riverside

Is there anybody waiting

Waiting for the tide

Guitar Solo

Bridge

The signal fades

The wires fray

The words remain unsaid

Everything we built

Everything we lost

Everything we sold

Is buried in the mud

Chorus

Is there anybody waiting

Waiting for the tide

Is there anybody waiting

Down by the riverside

Is there anybody waiting

Waiting for the tide

Outro

Waiting

Waiting

The water takes it all

Just let it go

Watch it go

Just let it go

Ooh

Ooh
