I sit in silence
and wait and watch
and want and need

I wait for you to knock on my door
I watch the people walk by
I want to feel your gentle touch
i need to hear your voice

I wait for my eyes to ope, and my mind to say its just a dream.
i watch my clock spend round in circles
I want to hear your laugh
i need to see your smile

I sit in silence
And wait and watch
And want and need

For you to come back to me....
