The Temper Trap - I'm Gonna Wait

Way down
In a not so distant place
Your ghost is lingering
Still frames remembering
The way we were

Way down
I see reflections in the well
A distant haunting bell
Resounding every time
I touch you in my mind

Helpless
Prayers cannot speed the time
Nor heaven change the mind
Left to our own device
We set this bridge alight

One day
You may not know it yet
But this you won't forget
I was the one who came
Running back again

I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I wanna
I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I wanna
I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait for you

My arms
Are reaching out to you
Each time I think of you
The floodgates open
And I'm left drowning in

All hope
It lingers in my sleep
May you return to me
Not to possess
But to hold you in my keep

I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I wanna
I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I wanna
I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait for you

And so the last page shall remain
Empty until we write the rest
Yes some may say that I'm a fool
A fool for waiting for you

I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I wanna
(I'll be a fool, a fool waiting for you)
I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I wanna
(When you come calling, I'll be here still waiting for you)
I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I wanna,
I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I wanna,
I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait for you
