what we have been waiting for Lyrics
i have been waiting
for july to come around
i hear the summer
whispering the things to come
we have been waiting for the sun to show its face
thank you, sweet winter
but now we're desperate to move on
we leave behind the words we've known
and build ourselves a brand new home
maybe then we'll find the time we've lost
set us free,
sweet summer day
we've been waiting much too long for you to come
save me from
the worst i've known
and let me relive the days i've thrown away
times have changed so quickly
it's a shame that we have lost so many things that we will never find again
but it doesn't matter anymore, anyways
summer sings a song to us that i can't ignore
that i'm desperate for
i tried too hard to keep my calm but i just cannot anymore, anyways
remember all the times we've wasted
drowning ourselves in foolish dreams
we were betrayed by our own hope
but the summer will be a sweet revenge
the end
for july to come around
whispering the things to come
but now we're desperate to move on
and build ourselves a brand new home
maybe then we'll find the time we've lost
sweet summer day
we've been waiting much too long for you to come
the worst i've known
and let me relive the days i've thrown away
it's a shame that we have lost so many things that we will never find again
but it doesn't matter anymore, anyways
that i'm desperate for
i tried too hard to keep my calm but i just cannot anymore, anyways
drowning ourselves in foolish dreams
we were betrayed by our own hope
but the summer will be a sweet revenge

i love this song! fun to dance to.
definitely their best...
I LOVE THIS SONG.
i think its pretty self explanatory.
does anyone else who listens to this song have it at like 8 mintues but its like silent for the last 4?!!! I do not understand.
I see it as: They've been down for so long, but now they're just ready to let go and start over. They've realized their mistakes and just wanna make the best out of tomorrow.
They just woke up and wanna live for the moment!
ilovethissong-- but my favorite lyric in this song is the one that someboddyy messed up. see,, in the fifth stanza, the first line Leave behind the words weve known - is actually leave behind the WORST weve known. burrnnn
