the clouds are lifting. the drugs are fading away
the fog’s receding. the sun is rising they say
and i am waiting. and i am waiting to say
that i can hear you, and i am ready to stay

will you come with me?
we’ll go on fading away
into the sunshine
no one will follow this way
will you come with me?
and if i asked you to stay?
would you be happy?
now tell me, what would you say?

the clouds are lifting. the tide is turning this way
the sky is melting, and we are all in its way
do you resent me? or are you happy you stayed?
please don’t be angry, that things have turned out this way

do you still love me?
or has it all washed away?
will you stay with me?
don’t let us go on this way
and i am waiting
and i am waiting to say
that i am empty
and i am ready to stay
