Down the hall you wait for me In silence hard to bear No one sees how blinding fear Can cripple kids like us Cause it's the end of the night I'm at the end of my line I've got to fight just to fight Would you come and lay your hand on mine I know you're tired of trying You must be tired of crying You hesitate Don't wait I know it's hard but darling don't wait I know it's hard but darling don't wait Oh the water's rising up Your lifeboat is just bout sunk Crying out for angels now The choir, save me now Cause at the end of the night Coming one at a time Picking fight after fight Would you come and set aside your mind With the weight getting colder You holding onto my shoulder Ya hesitate Don't wait I know it's hard but darling don't wait Your patient mindedness Your heart is mine in this Trust me trust faithfulness I know it's hard but darling don't wait You won't lose my attention I promise you affection Trust in these words of mine I know it's hard but darling don't wait
