What were you waiting for? What twist of fate? Whatever you were waiting for Never came What were you dreaming of? What kind of special love? Each time drawn in like a moth To the flame Lying there with your open eyes And your dying innocence When you drowned in the sea of life Did your own one make no sense What were you hoping for? What kind of flavor? Just to know that life could be so sweet Only to leave a bitter taste What were you praying for? What kind of savior? Whoever you were waiting for Never came Lying there with your open eyes And your dying innocence When you drowned in the sea of life Did your own one make no sense? Lying there with your open eyes And your dying innocence When you drowned in the sea of life Did your own one make no sense? Lying there with your open eyes And your dying innocence Before the day begins Do you thank your stars or count your sins Or think of all the finer things That finally came?
