I'll Be Waiting
Composer(s): Tony Banks

Night and once again I hear you calling 
In my mind you speak the words I long to hear 
I see your face can even feel your breathing 
Though I know that you are never really there 

If I had been born bolder you would be truly next to me

So then 
I'll be waiting I'll be waiting 
I'm waiting just for you 

To stroke your hair and feel your arms around me 
To talk of things we did or we would do 
Would be the kind of magic I'd believe in 
But there's some things even wizards cannot do 

If I had been born bolder I wouldn't need a magic wand 

So then 
I'll be waiting I'll be waiting 
I'd give up all for you 
What else can I do 
I'm waiting just for you 

We stand together in the evening sun 
Unspoken thoughts we share as one 
Golden light on distant mountains 
Slowly fades as surely as the light of dreams 

Don't think about tomorrow 
In the darkness I can still believe you're here 
If the power of thought can give a vision substance 
Then in truth you are alive and close to me 

If I had been born bolder I would take you in my arms 
Who's to stop me reaching for you the only one is me 

So then 
I'll be waiting I'll be waiting 
I'd give up all for you 
What else can I do 
I only dream of you 
What else can I do 
I'm waiting just for you 
What else can I do 

I'll be waiting
