verse 1 I've been waiting for answers I've been waiting a long, long time If I open the door won't you come inside verse 2 My heart's begging for mercy How much longer can I sit still and be Hopeful and doubting and torn inside Oh Chorus And all this time I've been staring at the minute hand Oh what a crime That I can't seem to understand That life is in the waiting Mmm verse 3 I've been working on patience Trying to trust in the timing Of my tiny existence, I come alive I sat still in the twilight I found peace in the quiet things How could I wish away all the in between Oh Chorus And all this time I've been staring at the minute hand Oh what a crime That I can't seem to understand That life is in the waiting Mmm Bridge And I find there's no knowing of a right time No it could keep you waiting all night for it So hold tight Don't lose sleep over the half-life Know that everything is alright Just like it is Chorus And all this time I've been staring at the minute hand Oh what a crime That I can't seem to understand That life is in the waiting Mmm Outro Life is in the waiting Mmm
