A long, long time ago I had a dream Somehow things work out much different than they seem All the things that I tried to find, givin' me no peace of mind So now I leave it all as memories behind My time come at last My day is coming fast My love is gonna

(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart (Seek me) for comfort (Call me) for solace (Seek me, call me, I'll be waiting) This distance This disillusion I cling to memories While falling
