One thought has me turning back A dozen point the other way We act upon desire To each a hand for hire And patience isn't worth the wait
You've got knives in your eyes You would be happy not to change your mind I can't defend you truly When I worry about smoke instead of putting out the fire
And if we work it out Chances abound We'd be standing our ground For no one's better sake (Better say) goodbye
What are we waiting for? (x6)
Hum... What are we waiting for?
How faint might that light become In focus but at miles away? Although my position Just gives you an ignition Be certain that I know my place
So is this how it ends? Oh with a whimper in the place of a bang I can't defend you truly When I worry about smoke instead of putting out the fire
And if we work it out Chances abound We'd be standing our ground For no one's better sake (Better say) goodbye
We would be friends If we tried again I'll take second place Just to end the race For no one's better sake (Better say) goodbye.
