It's all coming back to me now But try as I have to keep The taste of you off of my tongue Your face from my fitful sleep And I wait, hope against hope like before And I wait, hope that I won't anymore And this won't stop 'till I do Until I learn to kill the thought Of everything I could have said Of everything I wished I'd not And I wait, hope against hope like before And I wait, hope that I won't anymore Show rises up from the street And a crowd rises up to its feet I followed blind after you I might know better if I'd ever wanted to ♪ The painting here is still not dry And I can smell it from the door It covers every mark you made The countin' days are keepin' score And I wait, hope against hope like before And I wait, hope that I won't anymore And I wait, hope against hope like before And I wait, hope that I won't anymore
