The darkness of these starlit skies sets down upon my tired eyes
And I’m waiting for the last uncertainty
I’ve walked across these streets before and it always seemed outside your door
The heaviness subsides so I can breathe
And I’m waiting to see you
Waiting to be you
Waiting to see
CHORUS
If I can breathe you in, if you’ll let me out
Of this caged up soul that I’ve created that surrounds me now
If there is truth inside you or a demon in me
If you ask me what I’m waiting for
I’m waiting to see
The hazy dawn and morning’s light awake and now you’re in my sight
But I’m not sure if my feelings yet have grown
The fear that plagues the heart of me dances in the part of me
That faces everything I’ve ever known
And I’m waiting to feel you
Scared of the real you
Waiting to see
CHORUS
Waiting to see what I might be if released from chains that bind me from within
But I’m holding out from feelings of doubt that capture my release
I’m waiting for peace.
So come in, oooh let me out
Ask me what I’m waiting for, I’m waiting to see.
-- Sara Bareilles, Waiting to See
I don't love this melody, but the girl can write.
