On a quiet, dusty day
In a room where echoes stay
By the roadside, I confess
I was lost in thought and rest
Through the words of endless fate
Reading how we meet the gate
And if we're pure, we'll drift away
Anywhere our hearts can stay
In your place, I ache to be
Wall to wall, so patiently
I’ll wait for you there
Like a stone
I’ll wait for you there
Alone
And on my final bed I’ll pray
To the heavens, come what may
Like a wanderer, I’ll plead
For someone’s hand to set me free
To a world I used to know
Long ago, so far below
Skies were red, the wine was gone
And there your voice led me on
In your place, I ache to be
Wall to wall, so patiently
I’ll wait for you there
Like a stone
I’ll wait for you there
Alone
Alone
And still I read
Till the night had come
And I sat with the weight
Of the wrongs I’ve done
For all I’ve held
And all I’ve lost
In dreams before I’m gone
I will wander on
In your place, I ache to be
Wall to wall, so patiently
I’ll wait for you there
Like a stone
I’ll wait for you there
Alone
Alone
