folky pop with some electric lead
love
hope
uncertainty
Story behind the song
It turned into an anguished love song - but I was probably just waiting for it to stop raining when I wrote it...
Lyrics
Waiting for the sky to clear
BmG ABm A G ABm
I'm in the dark
The street lights in the distance
Speak of some other existence
But their afterglows persistent
And my eyes just won't adjust
It seems do stark
The agony of ignorance
Leaves it all just down to chance
When will the fates now stop their dance
It's down to win or bust
G ABm G AC G A A7
AmG C DC G A A7
I can't stop my mind
Telling me that I've been blind
I can't stop the train
Of thoughts careering through my brain
I just want you near
Sit beside me don't deny me
Join me, waiting for the sky to clear
BmG ABm A G ABm G ABm
It's so unfair
That the world is full of happiness
But my life's in such a mess
Leaving me with no redress
There is no future I can see
'less you come back and say to me
You care
CD C G A A7
There are lights in the sky hidden from view
Why must I hide my love for you
