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
