Snow covers everything, white the streets And it's buried the whole world on me And you are so far away And that may never change Even when the sun returns to take its turn And turns the snow to rain But I wait patiently I wait for hope to turn to real And I wait so patiently I wait for you to come to me Days darken quick, nights stretch and extend An empty bed and empty heart mean empty everything And you are so far away And that may never change Even when the sun returns to take its turn And lights the streets again But I wait patiently I wait for hope to turn to real And I wait so patiently I wait for you to come to me The earth makes oceans and seas And miles and miles and miles And we make borders and rules And hours and hours and hours But I wait patiently I wait for hope to turn to real And I wait so patiently I wait for you to come to me
