Well my sister said joy can fade
And in comes the darkness to take its place
She told me once, you gotta flip that switch
And face your darkness with your fists in a clench
And those black clouds came, they swallowed her whole
And we waited for someone to carry her home
And we said Simeon, we've been waiting on you
We're gonna call on you when you come
There ain't no road too long, nor canyon wide
That's gonna keep me from your side
And when the storm winds blow you,
They're gonna catch your sails tonight
So she made his bed and put away her dog
And they wrote their story on his bedroom walls
And they sat in a chair, yeah, her man by her side
And they watched the clock while the spring flew by
And they said Simeon, we've been waiting on you
We're gonna call on you when you come
There ain't no road too long, nor canyon wide
That's gonna keep me from your side
And when the storm winds blow you,
They're gonna catch your sails tonight
And the sun goes down
And they turn off the light
And that joy comes flooding in, Simeon by her side
They're gonna watch him rock
They're gonna watch him roll
He's gonna show them things that they've never known
And this is Simeon, we've been waiting on you
We're gonna call on you when you come
There ain't no road too long, nor canyon wide
That's gonna keep me from your side
And when the storm winds blow you,
They're gonna catch your sails
Gonna catch your sails
Gonna catch your sails tonight
