lyrics

I am waiting, are you waiting too?
Waiting for the moon to rise
I am looking, are you looking through
A dirty window that blurs every point of light

When I was young I had a box of paint
I tried to colour every drop of rain
I tried to paint a pink and orange sky
But the sky stayed blue and so did I

In the bay the Fundy tide is rising
And the water’s coming in like coming home
And the water’s coming in like coming home

So won't you
Come around, talk me down
Pick me up, fill my cup
Make me feel, make it real
Give me more, find a door
Cut the key, to set me free
It's all I need
It's all I need

Sometimes I feel I'm fading out of view
Like a distant light that used to be a star
I am waiting, are you waiting too
Waiting for that star to fall

But in my way I’m making up for lost time
I know I’ll get there someday
In the wind and in the waves I hear the voices
Of the ones who move the water on its way

And in my heart I‘ve got a little space now
If you need a place to come like coming home
If you need a place to come like coming home

And I will
Come around, talk you down
Pick you up, fill your cup
Make you feel, make it real
Give you more, find a door
Cut the key, to set you free
When it's all you need
