Waiting For God

/Somedays I....
search in vain for a little human decency..
just a sign
in someone's eyes-
for a little meaning...
And Sometimes I..
just feel very empty inside...
And God's so far away...
and it's so hard to be strong..
so hard to hold on...
when you can't make sense of each day..../

/Amazing How,
people have always said that I....
have been in need of some restraint..
I've lived life wild, because getting through
this life isn't for those with hearts that are faint...
and God has always seemed so far away..
but for now, I'll just be content to wait./

/For him to save me from my fate..
I'll wait-
Waiting for God...
waiting for my state of grace...
I'll wait-
Waiting for God....
waiting for my state of grace./

/These are just thoughts that I wrote
that occupy a hidden place in my mind...\
about the peace I can never seem to find.
and who can ease my troubled mind?
why don't you tell me that you can..
you're my guru...
but you can't, can you?/

/People have always said that I
was in need of some kind of restraint...
I'll never be accused of having a heart that's faint...
And God is so far away
but I'll be faithful
and content to wait....
Waiting for God-
for him to save me from my destined fate....
and for my state of grace./

/Why don't you tell me
you can save me...
baby !
but that couldn't be-/

So I'll be content to wait...

Waiting for God...

I'll wait....

Waiting for God./
