I can´t wait, wait for you to change your mind
It´s late, I´m trying to walk the line
Well, it´s way past midnight and there are people all around
Some on their way up, some on their way down
The air burns and I´m trying to think straight
And I don´t know how much longer I can wait

I´m your man, I´m trying to recover the sweet love that we knew
You understand that my heart can´t go on beating without you
Well, your loveliness has wounded me, I´m reeling from the blow
I wish I knew what it was keeps me loving you so
I´m breathing hard, standing at the gate
But I don´t know how much longer I can wait

Skies are grey, I´m looking for anything that will bring a happy glow
Night or day, it doesn´t matter where I go anymore, I just go
If I ever saw you coming I don´t know what I would do
I´d like to think I could control myself, but it isn´t true
That´s how it is when things disintegrate
And I don´t know how much longer I can wait

I´m doomed to love you, I´ve been rolling through stormy weather
I´m thinking of you and all the places we could roam together

It´s mighty funny, the end of time has just begun
Oh, honey, after all these years you´re still the one
While I´m strolling through the lonely graveyard of my mind
I left my life with you somewhere back there along the line
I thought somehow that I would be spared this fate
But I don´t know how much longer I can wait
