Marillion - Waiting To Happen





 

Artist: Marillion
Album: Holidays In Eden
Title: Waiting To Happen

(music: marillion lyrics: steve hogarth)

I lie awake at night, listening to you sleeping
I hear the darkness breathe
And the rain against the window

After all this time
Cynical and jaded
All the stones are diamonds
All the blues are faded

Everything i've been through
All i've seen and heard
Spend to much of my life
In the spiritual third world
But you came and brought the rain here

Something waiting to happen
Something learning to fly
We can talk without talking
From inside to inside
I have waited to feel this
For the whole of my life

We took ourselves apart
We talked about our faces
You said you didn't like yours
I said i disagree

I keep the pieces separate
I clutch them in my coat
A jigsaw of an angel
I can do when i feel low

From emptiness and dryness
The famine of our days
Watch the heavens open
Wash it all away
You came and brought the rain here

Something waiting to happen
Something learning to fly
On the edge of exploding
Something wild and alive
Something waiting to happen
Anytime that you like
I have waited to feel this
For the whole of my life
