Speechless Songtext
von Gershon Veroba

The wind and rain blow by my door
But the sunshine isn′t following it anymore
Now the dark is all I see
But I'm still stretching my hands up so optimistically
In this room, I stand with faith alone
Faith in one I have always known
Turns me away
Saving my darkness for another day

I want to tell the world to stay
But their ears are closing more and more each passing day
We′ve said all the words we know
To keep hope and feel the promise of tomorrow
Across the sea, your beacon's drifted far
It's so hard to see who we are
Turning away, so many lose the will to pray


So tell me, how long must I wait
How long must I pray
Until my words get to you
How l long must I dream
How long ′til I see that you won′t answer me today
I'm left speechless, with nothing to say

This doubt occurs to more than me
Though I know that there′s a purpose in each thing I see
So who am I to tell them that it's fine
They don′t agree between them, so this faith is all mine
In this world, there's just too much to do
How could we make demands of you
Turn us away, but show us the words we need to say

And tell me, how long must I wait
How long must I pray
Until my words get to you
How l long must I dream
How long ′til I see that you won't answer me today
I'm left speechless, with nothing to say

I′ve given you every tear
I′ve given you every sigh
I've given you all of my pain as I walk through the fire
I′ve given you every prayer since I was an innocent child
Oh, how will I know that I've done all I can all the while
But my heart is strong and I still hold on


So there must be a reason, too
Why I′ll never change how I believe in you
Could it be that you are speechless, too
That the world has changed so much that they're forgetting you
In this room, I still remember you
The room is small, but it needs you, too
Don′t turn us away, save us a place up high today

And tell me, how long must I wait
How long must I pray
Until my words get to you
How l long must I dream
How long 'til I see that you won't answer me today
I′m left speechless, with nothing to say
