In the darkness I've been waitin'
I've been hungry, hidin', hatin'
All the silence; can't you even hear?
How could it take so long to appear

There was water in the sky then
There was water makin' islands
Now there's water fallin' in a tear
How could it take so long to appear?

Some need something they can lie on
Some need something they can die on
All I need's a bus to anywhere
How could it take so long to appear?

I have no one to go back to
I am nothing on my back, too
Just the sun if all the clouds were clear
How could it take so long to appear?
How could it take so long to appear?
