You hold your breath when people walk by

Safely kept behind rose-colored glass

Neatly tucked beneath the spotlight



Waiting for someone to love, waiting for someone to love

Waiting for someone to love



You're a Cheshire cat, you think a smile hides the rest

Ambiguity won't always cover the facts

Where do you come from? Where do you go?

Must be lonely to be all alone



Waiting for someone to love, waiting for someone to love

Waiting for someone to love, waiting for someone to love

Waiting for someone to love, waiting for someone to love



And when they come, they'll accept you just the way you are

You'll sway under a moonlit spell of rocks and sky and trees

Back dropped by the sea, thin wild mercury, thin wild mercury

Until then, you're



Waiting for someone to love, waiting for someone to love

Waiting for someone to love, waiting for someone to love

Waiting for someone to love, waiting for someone to love
