Cthere must be soFmething in the signs we're reading
Cthere must be soAm7mething Fin the story of our history
when will you start to take the time you're needing?

when all that you wanted
was someone to wake you in the morning

do you still wear the robes of all the dreams you wove
Cor do you cast tFhem aside when you're through?
Fdimi've been waitinCg for thGe answer
i slept in the shadow of your father
i saw his work and i don't want his history
Well, you sought the counsel of your mother
you heard her stories and you saw your history
and she still remembers
them knocking down the windows
when all that she wanted
was someone to hold her when the night came
does she still wear the robes of all the dreams she
wove or does she cast them aside when she's through?
i've been waiting for the answer
