A Song While Waiting Lyrics by Mark Lanegan

Has God Seen My Shadow?: An Anthology 1989-2011

2014

[Verse 1]
The moon touches spring
Lift your hands and fall through the air
I don't know what I'd bring
Short of drifting away somewhere
I know about waiting
[Chorus 1]
It's cold, hold on to me
And belong to me wherever I go
The one who wears your rosary
I can't help myself, it's been too long already
[Post-Chorus 1]
What do they know about waiting?
Until the last fallen leaves have stopped breathing
[Verse 2]
The moon looks for spring
Lift your hands and fall through the air
I don't know what I'd bring
Short of drifting away somewhere
But I know about waiting
[Chorus 2]
It's cold, hold on to me
And belong to me wherever I go
The one who wears your rosary
I can't help myself, it's been too long already
[Post-Chorus 2]
What do they know about waiting?
Until the last fallen leaves have stopped bleeding
