I’ll Be Waiting (demo) Songtext
von PJ Harvey

They swept across the land
They did not leave a thing
They did not leave a person
A stone or a tree

They did not leave anything
They did not leave anything
All that′s left is sand
All that's left is sand

I remember father
I remember him
Every minute I remember
Every moment

Now I hate everyone
Now I hate everyone
Before I used to love
Before I used to love


One day thorns shall grow
One day thorns shall grow
From their graves (I will be waiting)
When they return (I will be waiting, I will be waiting)

Thorns will grow (I will be waiting, I will be waiting)
Over their graves (I will be waiting, I will be waiting)
I will be waiting (I will be waiting)

And when they return
I will be waiting
I will not leave a person
Standing

I will not leave anything
I will not leave anything
All I′ll leave is sand
All I'll leave is sand

And then thorns shall grow
And then thorns shall grow
From their graves (I will be waiting, waiting)
When they return (I will be waiting, I will be waiting)

Thorns shall grow (I will be waiting, I will be waiting)
Over their graves (I will be waiting, I will be waiting)
I will be waiting (I will be waiting, I will be waiting)
When they return (I will be waiting)


Thorns shall grow (I will be waiting, I will be waiting)
Over their graves (I will be waiting, I will be waiting)
I will be waiting (I will be waiting)
