lyrics

Night and day
You will wait
Not a word
Will be spoken

Night and day
Drift away
Years will pass
In a moment

Wait until the storm is breaking
Wait until the wind is calm
Wait until your heart is aching
Wait until your brain is numb

Fight your way
Through the waves
Lose yourself
In the ocean

Drifting into deeper water
Hoping no one hears you cry
Every time a ship comes close
You wait and watch it pass you by

It's never the one
Never the one
Never the one that you were waiting for

It's never the one
Never the one
Never the one that you were waiting for

When they said
You were dead
No one knew
For certain

Far away
Endless days
Cover you
Like a curtain

Wait until the ship is sinking
Wait until you lose your nerve
Wait forever
Wait for nothing
Wait and get what you deserve

Say you will
Stay until
You forget
Why you're searching

Every day you sit and stare
With emptiness behind your eyes
Anything you find out there
Will never come as a surprise

It's never the one
Never the one
Never the one that you were waiting for

It's never the one
Never the one
Never the one that you were waiting for
