I'll Wait For You

(album: Rise And Fall - 2009)

I confess
I'll wear my heart on my sleeve
Everyday, I come apart at the seams
And I've got to save my own life

Oh, I got lost
Somehow you're still out of reach
Wish I'd known what I was throwing away
Is there no place love still remains?

Like a tightrope on a Ferris wheel
There's no refuge, only beams of steel
That break me into pieces
And I miss you, the way you were
Turn the light on so my eyes can see
Help me hold on 'til the night recedes
The sad clown, in the fair grounds
That's where I'll
Wait for you

Are you feigned?
I left my heart open wide
Drove a nail, like a thorn in my side 'til it shattered
Shattered like glass

Threw a stone into a mirror that cracked all alone
Wrecked my balancing acts
All the circus
Fading away

Like a tightrope on a Ferris wheel
There's no refuge, only beams of steel
That break me into pieces
And I miss you, the way you were
Turn the light on so my eyes can see
Help me hold on 'til the night recedes
The sad clown, in the fair grounds
That's where I'll
Wait for you

For you

I will wait…
I will wait for you [x4]

Like a tightrope on a Ferris wheel
There's no refuge, only beams of steel
That break me into pieces
And I miss you, the way you were
Turn the light on so my eyes can see
Help me hold on 'til the night recedes
The sad clown, in the fair grounds
That's where I'll
Wait for you

I will wait... (for you)
I will wait for you [x2]

I will wait for you
