While You're Waiting - Ron Sexsmith

Time goes slowly

Time goes silently

Drags its feet, no it never flies

While you’re waiting for the love to return to her eyes

And words they fail you

Words come awkwardly

Leave your lips as they turn to sighs

While you’re waiting for the love to return to her eyes

And what once shines so brightly

Makes the present seem so pale

Once held in arms so tightly

Now you’re just a ship without a sail, without a sail

And thoughts grow stormy

Thoughts weigh heavily

Feels as if the sun will never rise

While you’re waiting for the love to return to her eyes
