I was from the outside
Was from the outside looking in

I craved a warmer feeling
I craved a warmer feeling

Just like the ocean needs the shore
You know I've always wanted more

But I'll keep on waiting
Keep on waiting on
I'll keep on waiting
Keep on waiting on 
The day that sets my heart on fire
To redeem my oblivious desire

Just like a flower
Just like a flower in the snow

You know I tried to follow
You know I tried to follow

Oh, that tiny ray of light
'Cause winter sun just ain't so bright

But I'll keep on waiting
Keep on waiting on
I'll keep on waiting
Keep on waiting on 
The day that sets my heart on fire
To redeem my oblivious desire

I need the patience of the wind
That carves a pillar out of rock
And the current of a river
So I can't be stopped

But I'll keep on waiting
Keep on waiting on
I'll keep on waiting
Keep on waiting on 
The day that sets my heart on fire
To redeem my oblivious desire

But I'll keep on waiting
Keep on waiting on
I'll keep on waiting
Keep on waiting on 
The day that sets my heart on fire
To redeem my oblivious desire
