Everybody's waiting For their one and only Their now and always And everybody's waiting For their feet to lead them Heartbeats to seize them And what's running through my veins Makes me just the same as everybody I might be saying this in vain But I'm looking for my anybody People have always told us That the silence heeds us The night decrees us But I believe that silence Is all there is to What's underneath us And if you're staring at my bones They are all the stories I embody And you've got stories of your own Tell me, will you be my anybody? And I am asking so someday When I get older I will be able to say That I am not alone Alone Be my anybody Be my anybody But 'til then I'll be waiting No, not by myself, but with everybody 'Cause hidden in the silence Is my one and only anybody
