The Longest Wait Songtext
von Fernando Viciconte

Time moves at a glacial pace
When you′re fighting for last place
Been extracted like a bad tooth
Another version of the truth
That you never seem to know about
'Cause everybody shuts you out
And puts you down

You hear ′em talking behind your back
Hearsay about this and that
You say you're gonna tell 'em off some day
But still you do nothing anyway
Never seems to be the right time
It always seems to stay in your mind
It keeps you down
Keeps you down
It keeps you down


And you stand right there
Top of the stairs
Searching for the nerve
To throw yourself down
You stop yourself
You never were that brave anyway

Your life is the longest wait
And time has sealed your fate
You wake up to another week
You roll over go back to sleep
Color bars on the TV screen
The best show that you′ve ever seen

And you never seem to try too hard
Nothing′s written in the stars
For you
It gets you down
It gets you down

And you stand right there
Top of the stairs
Searching for the nerve
To throw yourself down
You stop yourself
You never were that brave anyway
Your life is the longest wait
And time has sealed your fate


Your life is the longest wait
And time has sealed your fate
