She counts her every footstep
She never misses one
She's this afraid of something
She's not having fun, she's not having fun

she mutters at the sidewalk
She's laughing at the sky
she thinks herself in circles
and still she wonders why, still she wonders why

Chorus:
And she waits for roses
She waits for fire
Oh she waits for her freedom
she might wait a while
Oh stay a while

The clouds that loom above her
Are everything she sees
She misses all the beauty
Down below her knees, down below her knees

She's reaching for tomorrow
She curses yesterday
The seconds turn to seasons
And she just floats away, she just floats away

Chorus

Yeah, Wont you sieze the moment, 'fore the moment slips away?

Chorus
