Such a Long Time
A stemless flower sitting on my windowsill
And from this vantage point it's dying
Time passes on
(Time it moves past her)
A thousand more dawns
(And mornings after)
I’ve been waiting such a long time
Like a sunset sitting perfectly still
You think you're moving but you're idling
Standing in line
(Awaiting the answer)
There’s no one behind
(And no one before her)
I've been waiting such a long time, love
This moment
I'll seize it
And this time you know that I'll mean it
