Waiting in the Sunlight
music: Brad Wentworth
lyrics: Jay Wentworth
Waiting in the sunlight
sitting on the sill
the smell of coffee brewing
my heart won’t keep still
Seems like you flew away
though I begged you to stay
How did leaving seem to help?
You’re sick and I’ve been crumpled—
stone-struck by emptiness
stone-struck by emptiness
Being apart is a cancer too
but it can’t invade my loving you
You arrive this morning,
early afternoon?
your voice an echo inside.
Were you on the moon?
I remember when we
ran away to the mountains
remember how open we felt
two hawks wheeling and diving
Somehow we could fly!
And somehow we could fly!
Being apart is a cancer too
but it can’t invade my loving you
it can’t invade, it can’t invade
my loving you.
my loving you.
my loving you.
Seems like you flew away
though I begged you to stay
How did leaving seem to help?
You’re sick and I’ve been crumpled—
stone-struck by emptiness
stone-struck by emptiness
Being apart is a cancer too
but it can’t invade my loving you
it can’t invade, can’t invade
my loving you.
my loving you.
my loving you.
Waiting in the sunlight
sitting on the sill
the smell of coffee brewing
my heart won’t keep still
