[K'naan:] I’ve been running out of my 70 excuses There comes a point when patience can’t take all these abuses Now my reserves are empty, i’m feeling kind of low 'Cause when do you fight for someone and when do you let ‘em go The other day I thought I saw you on a magazine Your stubborn nose pretending to belong to the machine
[Chorus:] I’ve been waiting for you to come to your senses Holding up your heavy heart, down there in the trenches You don’t have to carry that weight all by yourself Even you the mercenary could use a little help You’ve got your gun, your bulletproof pride You never run, but you sure know how to hide
[K'naan:] My friend said he had seen you at a movie theatre You looked just as you had always, didn’t ask about me either I won’t say life ends without you, but you’re the only answer You got me like a thief - you got me with my hands up The other day I thought I saw you on a magazine Your stubborn nose pretending to belong to the machine
[Chorus:] I’ve been waiting for you to come to your senses Holding up your heavy heart, down there in the trenches You don’t have to carry that weight all by yourself Even you the mercenary could use a little help You’ve got your gun, your bulletproof pride You never run, but you sure know how to hide
[Bono duet with himself] Yeah, there’s something wrong Yeah, be safe now
(Your wish is falling before you The stars are frustrating You’re always into waiting love)
There’s a faith in my heart Going days won’t stop When I feel that I’m still In the beat of your soul When you talk When you write When you weave and you flow And you leave and you stay Only waiting is left Now I’m kneeling around in the cold
[Chorus:] I’ve been waiting for you to come to your senses Holding up your heavy heart, down there in the trenches You don’t have to carry that weight all by yourself Even you the mercenary could use a little help You’ve got your gun, your bulletproof pride You never run, but you sure know how to hideTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
