Coming Back To You
i may have betrayed you
for a time
on that long waiting
a waiting that has lasted
for quite long
when the path has not flowered
my steps back
to you
but i shall compensate for the
lost moments
here i am back to your bosom
my fingers shall sow some petals
of words
that you really miss
this kiss
that lands upon your cheek
dried
like a rainless creek
i have come a long way
only to see you falling asleep in bed
in total exhaustion
where is the potion?

Look Back In Anger
You know who I am, he said
The speaker was an angel
He coughed and shook his crumpled wings
Closed his eyes and moved his lips
Its time we should be going
(waiting so long, Ive been waiting so, waiting so)
Look back in anger, driven by the night
Till you come
(waiting so long, Ive been waiting so, waiting so)
Look back in anger, see it in my eyes
Till you come
No one seemed to hear him
So he leafed through a magazine
And, yawning, rubbed the sleep away
Very sane he seemed to me
(waiting so long, Ive been waiting so, waiting so)
Look back in anger, driven by the night
Till you come
(waiting so long, Ive been waiting so, waiting so)
Look back in anger, feel it in my voice
Till you come
(waiting so long, ahhh...)
(waiting so long, Ive been waiting so, waiting so) (waiting so long, Ive been waiting so, waiting so)
(waiting so long, ahhh...)

Take You Back
Resting so alone
Way back home
Waiting for a long
Way to go
Nothing if I take you back
I'd rather never take you back for you
Waiting so fast
For a way to go
Wrestling with the past
Long way to go
Nothing if I take you back
I'd rather never take you back for you
I got more than I can have can't really say
I get more than I can use day to day
I get more time to take you back
I'd rather never take you back for you
Waiting so alone
Long time ago
Waiting so hard
On the radio
Wasting if I take you back
I'd rather never take you back for you
I got more than I can have can't really say
I get more than I can use day to day
I get more time to take you back
I'd rather never take you back for you

Its Been A Long Long Time
Its been a long time...
Since I held you tight.
Its been a long time...
Everyday in this fight.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
Since I've had a kiss.
Its been a long time...
You're pretty blue eyes I miss.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
This Iraqi tour.
Its been a long time...
I miss you so and more.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
Hot days with freezing nights.
Its been a long time...
Sunburned face, mosquito bites.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
Had a real bad day.
Its been a long time...
Lost some soldiers today.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
I suffer everyday.
Its been a long time...
For me to be away.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
For me to be alone.
Its been a long time...
No talking on the telephone.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
Since you heard me say...
Baby, my sweet darling...
I'm leaving Iraq today!

Long Way Back
(bill rice/sharon rice)
(track 6 - time 3:33)
Sitting in a cafe at the corner of broad and grand
Stirring up old memories and the coffee in my hand
The waitress stopped and asked me
Honey do you know what you want
I had to stop myself from telling her the truth
What I really need is another chance with you
But this temper train Im on just ran away too fast
Its a long, long, way back to you baby
Its a long, long, way back
The neon clock is humming showing sign of wear
Ive lost all sense of time since Ive been sitting here
The waitress asked again
Is there something else you need
I need to take the hands off that clock above my head
Reset the time and take back everything I said
If I could turn around, then I would erase my tracks
But its a long, long way back, to you baby
Its a long, long way back
It is a lonely road a fool travels down
I guess I oughta know cause thats where Im headed now
And its a long, its a long, way back
Sitting at the cafe just ruby lee and me
I get feeling shes waiting on me to leave
She stopped askin hours ago if I know what I want
Yeah but its a long, long way back, to you baby
Its a long, long way back
I miss you darlin
Its a long, long way back

I’ve been waiting so long
I’ve been waiting
For so long
You’re coming
You’re sending
A message
You’re coming
You’re falling
You’re falling
To the ground
To the ground
I am waiting
I am waiting
You’re falling
You’re falling
To this ground
This ground
You are falling
I’ve been waiting
For so long
My arms my hands
My fingers
Have been waiting
For so long
You are falling
To this
Holy ground.

It's so hard to bear with the pain Original by Rabindranath Tagore
It's so hard to bear with the pain
Of waiting for a long long time
I keep waiting for you baby
All day and all night long daily
But you haven't come yet, my friend
My days pass by and night's pass by
Thus everything passes by
But you haven't come yet, my friend
It's so hard to bear with the pain
Of waiting for a long long time
I keep waiting for you baby
All day and all night long daily
But you haven't come yet, my friend
Now my body is weak
All my tears have dried out
And my eyes have lost sleep
One by one all my cherished hopes
Fall like the winter's withered leaves
But you haven't come yet, my friend
It's so hard to bear with the pain
Of waiting for a long long time
I keep waiting for you baby
All day and all night long daily
But you haven't come yet, my friend

How Long Will It Take
here we go again
here is the lie again
here it goes
my tears are falling down again
all you are saying
we will be back again
you are coming to me
but when
you gone and never come back
you called and hear me crying
all you do is laughing
cheering, careless
you told me to wait
but how long
how much time do we have
baby, i can't be without you
how long will it be
how long will it take
you lie to me
but i still love you
you are hurting me
god still blessing you
you avoided me
i am still looking out for you
please baby i am on my knees
please come back i love you
i'm here on my chair waiting for your call
how long will it take

When lights close their tired eyes.

I'll be with you when the stars start falling.
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love.
I'm with you my love,
The light's shining through on you.
Yes, I'm with you my love,
It's the morning and just we two.
I'll stay with you darling now,
I'll stay with you till my seas are dried up.

I Love You
How was your day?
I've not much to say,
But I miss you so.
What's it like there?
Snow in the air?
I couldn't watch you go,
But I want you to know.
Wherever you go,
Wherever you hide,
I'll be here waiting for you
In the middle of the night.
Whatever is lost,
Whatever may change,
I'll be here waiting for you
Standing in the pouring rain.
I'll do anything to be true,
To you.
As long as you love me,
And I love you.
How was your morning?
What time did you awake?
I miss you so much,
How ya been, Cupcake?
Why did you have to go?
Wherever you are,
I want you to know.
Wherever you go,
Wherever you hide,
I'll be here waiting for you
In the middle of the night.
Whatever is lost,
Whatever may change,
I'll be here waiting for you
Standing in the pouring rain.
I'll do anything to be true,
To you.
As long as you love me,
And I love you.
I miss your voice,
I miss you and me.
I miss how we were,
And how we should be.
Here I wait,
For the number eight.
The days going by.
They say time flies,
When you're having fun.
It's not yet begun.
Oh, hurry eight!
Don't make me wait,
And don't come late!
I can see you only,
In a matter of time.
I can't wait until again,
I can call you mine.
Wherever you go,
Wherever you hide,
I'll be here waiting for you
In the middle of the night.
Whatever is lost,
Whatever may change,
I'll be here waiting for you
Standing in the pouring rain.
I'll do anything to be true,
To you.
As long as you love me,
And I love you.
I love you.

I know its wrong
To keep on...

The Long Afternoon Became Longer
THE LONG AFTERNOON BECAME LONGER
The long afternoon became longer-
Time had no end and boredom also-
We all know it will eventually pass
But in the middle we are marooned waiting
Without any idea whatsoever of what to do-
I write these lines because I know
Boredom too has its beauty-
And waiting for nothing also its dream-
And out of nowhere there may come
Long into the long afternoon
Far after all the work is done and nothing remains
While waiting is still going on
A small poem to break the monotony
And give meaning back to life.

It Wont Be Long
(words & music by wayne - weisman)
The shooting stars are coming out of your eyes
They point the way, the way to paradise
I got a funny feeling, I cant be wrong
It wont be long until the sparks will fly
It wont be long
I hear a buzz, buzz around in my brain
But what it does, is bound to drive me insane
At a time like this I must be strong
It wont be long till the sky falls down
It wont be long
Love has taught me plenty, Im still learning more
Anything worth having is worth the waiting for
Here I go, Im on a one way trip
Look out below because Im about to flip
I tell you when these lips get to that kiss
It wont be long until were out of this world
It wont be long
Love has taught me plenty, Im still learning more
Anything worth having is worth the waiting for
Here I go, Im on a one way trip
Look out below because Im about to flip
I tell you when these lips get to that kiss
It wont be long, it wont be long until were out of this world
It wont be long
It wont be long, it wont be long until were out of this world
It wont be long

Just Got Back
Words and music by rick nielsen
Well just got back
Been gone too long
Wasnt my idea, didnt pull the trigger
Oh oh oh I i I Im just so glad
Im just so glad to be back home, yeah
I just got back
Been a long long time
Wasnt my idea, didnt point the finger
Oh oh oh I i I Im just so glad
Im just so glad to go home
You run the risk of falling
With some solitary sam
Ive sailed the seven sins a poly-future plan
A. paul calypso
Isnt really what it seems
This aint committee art
My god, is it a dream?
I just got back
I been asleep too long
Wasnt my idea what the doctor figured
Oh oh oh I i I Im just so glad
Im just so glad, Im just so glad, Im just so glad
To be back home
No no no no no no no no
Im just so glad
No no no no no no no no
Im just so glad

Waiting
Waiting
Sparkling ripples on the water
blessed by the morning sun.
The little birds that fly
through the freeways of the sky
as I stand here waiting
for my love to come.
I have waited for so long
My tears are now dried
The sun has now sets in the east
Rainbows falling at my feet
waiting for my love to come
Our home is cold
The trees are bare
The wind has gone in rage
Not a shadow, nor single footstep
i am waiting

Somewhere Out There
Last time I talked to you,
You were lonely and out of place.
You were looking down on me,
Lost out in space.
Laid underneath the stars,
Strung out and feeling brave.
Watch the riddles glow,
Watch them float away.
Down here in the atmosphere,
Garbage and city lights,
You gotta save your tired soul,
You gotta save our lives.
Turn on the radio,
To find you on sattellite,
Im waiting for the sky to fall,
Im waiting for a sign.
All we are is all so far.
Youre falling back to me,
The star that I cant see.
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Youre falling out of reach,
Defying gravity,
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Hope you remember me,
When youre homesick and need a change.
I miss your purple hair,
I miss the way you taste.
I know youll come back someday,
On a bed of nails awake.
Im praying that you dont burn out,
Or fade away.
All we are is all so far
Youre falling back to me,
The star that I cant see.
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Youre falling out of reach,
Defying gravity,
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Youre falling back to me,
The star that I cant see.
I know youre out there, oh.
Youre falling out of reach,
Defying gravity....
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Youre falling back to me,
The star that I cant see.
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Youre falling out of reach,
Defying gravity,
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Youre falling back to me.
Well I know,
I know.
Youre falling out of reach.
I know...

Waiting For The Sunrise
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
So I can take your hand and stroll about.
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
So we can go on the streets and see the people smile.
Give me your hand,
So I could tell you that things will be alright.
The rooms still dark,
But it wont be so long,
And I can take you outside.
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
So we can go to the park and roll about.
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
So we can go to the docks and watch the boats go by.
Come on, love, give me your hand,
And things will be alright.
The rooms still cold,
But it wont be so long,
That we can go outside.
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
So I could see your hair shining in the air.
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
So I can see the sky reflected in your eyes.
Come on, love, dont be depressed,
Things will be alright.
The rooms too low,
But it wont be so long,
That we can be outside.
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise,
Waiting for the sunrise.
