Long Time Waiting Lyrics
Elderly woman, walking alone
Hiding her beauty so nobody will know
Cold from the rain with no place left to go
Humbled from the begging life
Her last few years were filled with strife
There's no one left who cares
It's been so long since she could smile
Wondering where she went wrong
This roads gone on for way to long
She stops and listens
Looking up to the dark sky
She suddenly remembered why
Times been frozen
Her heart explodes deep inside
Been waiting for this chance to die
For so long
She smiled as the rain came down
As the rain came down she smiled
She spun in circles as the rain came down
As the rain came down she smiled
(Rain came down)
For the first time in so long
(Rain came down)
Nothing else could go wrong
Memories reveal a happy past
Two children who grew up too fast
Taken from her
He could not stand the pain inside
Left a note, committed suicide
The rest is a blur
Waiting for a time to expire
Visions of Heaven do inspire
Raindrops take her
She smiled as the rain came down
As the rain came down she smiled
She spun in circles as the rain came down
As the rain came down she smiled
She smiled as the rain came down
As the rain came down and it hits the ground
She spun in circles
As she spins around and she spun around till she hit the ground
Beautiful woman
Lying in the road
Taken by the rain
It's been so long since she could smile
Hiding her beauty so nobody will know
Cold from the rain with no place left to go
Her last few years were filled with strife
There's no one left who cares
It's been so long since she could smile
This roads gone on for way to long
She stops and listens
Looking up to the dark sky
She suddenly remembered why
Times been frozen
Been waiting for this chance to die
For so long
As the rain came down she smiled
She spun in circles as the rain came down
As the rain came down she smiled
For the first time in so long
(Rain came down)
Nothing else could go wrong
Two children who grew up too fast
Taken from her
Left a note, committed suicide
The rest is a blur
Visions of Heaven do inspire
Raindrops take her
As the rain came down she smiled
She spun in circles as the rain came down
As the rain came down she smiled
As the rain came down and it hits the ground
She spun in circles
As she spins around and she spun around till she hit the ground
Lying in the road
Taken by the rain
It's been so long since she could smile
