Lirik Joel Ansett - It Takes a Long Time to Wait (Official Audio & Artwork)

Climb up the chair by the window
You were looking for your friend
Mama said "they'll be here soon"
Makes me wonder what's in your head
"Soon" that's a tough one
All it means is not right now
And for you just a couple of moments
Are the same as a hundred hours

What to do?
When all you want is forever away
Or maybe it's soon
Either way
It takes a long time to wait

We used to dream by the window
Lots of laughter, steady smiles
Something pure, something simple
Now I can't take a joke and there's dirt in my eyes
I've been trying to clean them
But there's dust on the other side
I see you so dimly right now
And I'm waiting
I've been waiting for things to go bright

What to do?
When all you want is forever away
Or maybe it's soon
Either way
It takes a long time to wait

Keep a chair by the window
For the waiting in the night
And we pray for the morning
Though we can't find a hint of the light
Can you give me a window?
Just a glimpse of what heaven is like
I've been looking for something
But I can't see a lot with these same old tired eyes
