Wait for Me

Wait for me Can’t you see the dawn is coming? Lighting fire behind the mountain Wait for me Wait for me Don’t leave me stranded in this cold While the days are growing old Wait for me Come find me Where the western cedars blow And their needles fall like snow Wait for me I’m heading down to where land meets the water I’ll look on islands and dream myself there Drinking the ocean, she’ll carry me further High on the taste of her fresh salty air Riding her waves ‘til the tide lays me bare On the other side The other side Weeks have gone by And yet I stumble down these tracks But northern winds will drive me back So wait for me You’ll see me coming As the light falls down the mountain When the leaves are turning brown and Floating down I’ll come ‘round So wait for me So wait for me Wait for me
