Never thought I'd write this, thought you might write it for me
Here I am with all the lights burnt out
Rewatching memories
Of all the times we used to laugh
And all the songs we used to sing
Now I'm in this empty room
Watching these tears fall down on these strings

Oh, it's a hard life
It's so dark tonight
You told the world they'd never take your soul
Oh, how the days flew by
And now the nights go slow
But there's a place I go
I sit and watch crows
There goes a shooting star
You found your way back home
So will you wait, will you wait for me
Will you wait, will you wait for me

How could this have happened
Always thought we had more time
Life speeds up and then it crashes leaving broken dreams behind
Why do the good ones go so young
While the rest of us grow old
Now I hold this empty heart that's bleeding on this microphone

Oh, it's a hard life
It's so dark tonight
You showed the world they'd never take your soul
Oh, how the days flew by
And now the nights go slow
But there a place I go I sit and watch the crows
There goes a shooting star
You found your way back home
So will you wait, will you wait for me
Will you wait, will you wait for me

Oh, don't you leave us here alone
You showed the world they'd never take your soul
Oh, how the days flew by
And now the nights go slow
But there's a place I go I sit and watch the crows
There goes a shooting star
You found your way back home

So
Will you wait, will you wait for me
Wait for me
