Lyrics
To wait, and see the way, to that ever beloved day
When no one is refused, and we’ve got nothing to lose
But where is the wall which once held up the front door?
And where is it’s core?
And how do we fill this empty shell?
And wait to hear the conversation, but it may be a diversion today
Since no one’s really is served by this, just a single kiss and love…
But how do you square that circle within your poly-metric mind?
And how do you convince yourself everything is fine?
I try to tell myself within this isolation
It’s no longer a race, do realize
I tried to sell myself a better explanation
That truth has got a place within this enterprise
A hundred billion slightly weathered souls on a single boat
And they are all out there exposed, all exposed
As they wait to see if the way, will reveal itself today
They know it has got to be all coming their way, hey
All coming their way, it’s coming, it is coming this way
Coming someday, coming someday, hey
