[Verse] Hello I’ve worn a path waiting Forever Tonight, the years come flooding through Under the door Over the floor, they crawl bringing me to you Come back and spend another life Here with me Stay, even if you’re only late By a century [Chorus] And I wonder Could anybody wait ? Could anybody hold? The only thing I ever needed you to do Was to come home come home Come home [Verse] Lights out So I can watch the dark And now The future’s falling hard [speed up and use falsettos] I kept your place through every year Every year Slow, how the days disappeared One by one But somehow never took you away [Verse] I learned the mathematics Of an empty room One chair Two hands Three thousand afternoons I added every promise Subtracted every lie Divided all the distance By the number of goodbyes The answer kept returning No matter what I tried Forever Forever Forever on my side [Final Chorus] And I wonder And I wonder Could anybody wait ? Could anybody lose ? The only thing I ever needed you
