Lyrics

On clearer days I can see the lights from my bedroom door
On windy nights I can smell the lake as it drifts to me from the shore
The traffic lights silently change a thousand times a day
But I'm still waiting, yeah I'm still waiting

If my hand could block the sun, would we ever wake up?
If I turned back all these clocks would that be time enough?

I can't remember exactly when this longing began
But I know it wasn't before the day you touched my hand
Laugh and shout in blissful daze and numbers are exchanged
I'm still waiting, yeah I'm still waiting

If my hand could block the sun, would we ever wake up?
If I turned back all these clocks would that be time enough?

So put your hands where I can see them, and shut your mouth
I know who you are, in a world void of feeling
Or heart I know that we are the torches in the dark

Let's break this down, let's make this count
Let's leave this one-horse town, no better time than now

The angels dance like feathers float
They're here to see and to be seen
The clock strikes two
The music slows and each one slowly dons their wings
Once outside they all pair off
And hand in hand they leave but I'm still waiting
Yeah I'm still waiting

If my hand could block the sun, would we ever wake up?
If I turned back all these clocks would that be time enough?
