Shining in the eyes of every child

And in the flame of dawn reflecting on the open sea

In every fury and every love

You are awaiting me

But what about the child who cannot breathe

Or the gentle sage who won't see the age of thirty two

Light it was bright for the ground

I am awaiting

I am awaiting you

Light it all and burn it to the ground

Go ahead and let your thunder sound

Let me watch my loves and my teachers slowly fade away

I'll just have to wait another day

Maybe in god we trust just a lucky charm

Maybe faith is only hoping that we can rise anew

And so I rise and so I stand

I am awaiting you oh

I will still be standing here awaiting you

Light it all and burn it to the ground

Go ahead and let your thunder sound

Let me watch my loves and my teachers slowly fade away

I'll just have to wait another day

And so I rise and so I stand

I am awaiting

I am awaiting you

Awaiting you oh

I will still be standing here awaiting you
