I've been waiting for the long time now
I've been waiting for a long long time

I can hear the footsteps

Following behind me trying to find me

But when I turn around
A D A D
I can't see where the path goes into the shadows
G A Bm
Into the shadows
I've been waiting for a long long time

Bm
I can hear you breathing
(interlude)

Whispering in my ear there is nothing to fear
Bm
But when I turn around

As I see the trees bow

In my heart I've always known

You'd be there to bring me home

I've been waiting for a long long time
I've been waiting for the long time now
I've been waiting for the long time now
I've been waiting for the long time now
