I'm the one who keeps
A splinter of love between my fingers
And it burns like a flame
And singes my bones
I'm the one who stalks the breeze
For a chance to escape and be free
I'm the one that
Never ever speaks
I am the one who waits
I am the one who waits
Oh I am the one who waits
I am the one who gathers dead flowers
When the grass withers and the dust settles
I'm the one who hunts stars
To lay at your feet
The one who abandoned myself
And then I flew toward heaven instead
And then I crashed into you
In the rushing wind
I am the one who waits
I am the one who waits
Oh I am the one who waits
When the world has changed
I'll be the one who waits behind
Our hearts remain the same
Oh until the end of time
Your the one who steals the
One who takes
I'm the one whose weak
The one who stays
You're the one who's cold
The one who escaped
I'm the one who bleeds
I'm the one who stays
I am the one who waits
I am the one who waits
Oh I am the one who waits
