lyrics

I woke to the hail of my mind
I rose to the light behind my eyes
I froze to find I was temporarily blind
I'm waiting, i'm just waiting for my time

We wait and we wait
And we shake our heads
At mistakes we've made
Still we make our beds

And we lay in peace
While we count our sheep
And we wait, and we wait
For our time

I know what you want
I don't know what you need
I follow you around
Like a puppy at your knees

I know who you are
I don't know where you've been
I've been waiting too damn long
For this feeling

We wait, and we wait
And we shake our heads
At mistakes we've made
Still we make our beds

And we lay in peace
While we count our sheep
And we wait, and we wait
For our time

Gimme, gimme gone
Sing an honour song
Living up to legends
Like a king among pawns

I know how you feel
I don't know how you touch
I've been waiting too damn long
And expecting too much

I woke to the hail of my mind
I rose to the light behind my eyes
I froze to find I was temporarily blind
I'm waiting, I'm just waiting for my time

Gimme, gimme gone
Sing an honour song

Living up to legends

Gimme, gimme gone
I've been waiting too damn long
