  • Well, I came home like a stone
    And I fell heavy into your arms
    These days of dust which we've known
    Will blow away with this new sun

    But I'll kneel down wait for now
    And I'll kneel down know my ground

    And I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you

    So break my step and relent
    You forgave and I won't forget
    Know what we've seen and him with less
    Now in some way shake the excess

    'Cause I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you

    Now I'll be bold as well as strong
    And use my head alongside my heart
    So take my flesh and fix my eyes
    A tethered mind free from the lies

    And I'll kneel down wait for now
    I'll kneel down know my ground

    Raise my hands
    Paint my spirit gold
    And bow my head
    Keep my heart slow

    'Cause I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you Writer/s: Benjamin Walter David Lovett, Edward James Milton Dwane, Marcus Oliver Johnstone Mumford, Winston Aubrey Aladar Marshall
