Lyrics

Trapped in these walls I sit
Without a sound
Trying hard not to feel down
I listen for your voice

But the only thing I hear
Is empty space
I've got to get out of this place
while I still have the choice

I step outside to breathe
I feel the sun, I'm so relieved

And as I slowly drift away on the summer breeze
I close my eyes and think of you
Now my heart’s at ease
Soon you’ll be in my arms again
I’ll be waiting here for you
Waiting here for you

The city sidewalks flow like a raging river
My message to you I can’t deliver
No signal in the noise

Your smiling face I see
Among the crowd
But that’s just me wishing out loud
A habit to avoid

What are you doing now
Can you feel my love somehow

And as I slowly drift away on the summer breeze
I close my eyes and think of you
Now my heart’s at ease
Soon you’ll be in my arms again
I’ll be waiting here for you
Waiting here for you

I’m tired of my thoughts
I long for conversation with you
Inspired is my heart
Such anticipation for something new
A celebration overdue

And as I slowly drift away on the summer breeze
I close my eyes and think of you
Now my heart’s at ease
Soon you’ll be in my arms again
I’ll be waiting here for you
Waiting here for you
