| I can’t tell you what it means
|
| When you are here, I am at ease
|
| I don’t blame you when you’re gone
|
| For the sadness in my song
|
| That weight is mine alone, that shadow is my own
|
| The coast is never clear
|
| I’ll wait for morning though, you will arrive
|
| So we can watch that shadow disappear
|
| If you try to be with me, I will try to get by
|
| Some say I’m a fool for waiting
|
| They don’t know, this fool doesn’t mind
|
| They tell me «Give it up»
|
| But I won’t ever give it up
|
| Because when the night does fade
|
| I’m alive in the strangest way
|
| Those first few cracks of dawn
|
| Are a taste of what’s to come
|
| And yes I hum and haw about nothing at all
|
| I get lost in fear
|
| But no thief or act of god could take this grin I’ve got
|
| I know you will be here
|
| And if you try to be with me, I will try to get by
|
| Some say I’m a fool for waiting
|
| They don’t know, this fool doesn’t mind
|
| They tell me «Give it up»
|
| But I won’t ever give it up
|
| Ah, they tell me
|
| «So what she’s in your head?
|
| She’s gonna leave again?
|
| What’s gonna happen then?
|
| She’s just enabling»
|
| And there is truth to that
|
| But I ain’t holding back
|
| If you try, try, try
|
| Try to be with me, I will try to get by
|
| Some say I’m a fool for waiting
|
| They don’t know, this fool doesn’t mind
|
| If you try to be with me, I will try to get by
|
| Some say I’m a fool for waiting
|
| They don’t know, this fool doesn’t mind
|
| They tell me «Give it up»
|
| But I won’t ever give it up
|
| Oh, and they tell me «Give it up»
|
| But I won’t ever give it up |
