I long for a simple life,
Close my eyes to find the light
And I’m waiting
For nothing coming—
And I’m waiting
To see when I’ll stop.
It’s all fine
When the drinks are coming
And all is blind
For the world to see.
And I’m singing
For another winter--
And I’m singing
For a chance to be.
Elementary rules of the game
Say I should try to say your name,
Dreaming for a bright side of blue
I’m waiting here, I sing for you.
I play pretend
To see what I’m not
I dream again
For a spark of truth.
And I’m wishing
For a new fire--
And I’m wishing
You’ll put it out
And it’s all fine
When the music’s playing
And all is dear
Under the sun.
And I’m praying
Though there’s no answer--
And I’m praying
For another song
Another round, it’s all the same
Still I try to say your name
Dreaming for a bright side of blue
I’m wishing now, I pray for you.
