I love this song so much I could marry it. And this is NOT a draft; this is real-time lyrics, baby.
Any minute now my ship is coming in I'll keep checking the horizon And I'll stand on the bow And feel the waves come crashing Come crashing down, down, down on me
And you said,"Be still, my love Open up your heart Let the light shine in"
Don't you understand? I already have a plan I'm waiting for my real life to begin
When I awoke today suddenly nothing happened But in my dreams I slew the dragon And down this beaten path And up this cobbled lane I'm walking in my own footsteps once again
And you say,"Just be here now Forget about the past Your mask is wearing thin"
Let me throw one more dice I know that I can win I'm waiting for my real life to begin
Any minute now my ship is coming in I'll keep checking the horizon And I'll check my machine There's sure to be that call It's gonna happen soon, soon, oh so very soon It's just that times are lean
And you say,"Be still, my love Open up your heart Let the light shine in"
Don't you understand? I already have a plan I'm waiting for my real life to begin
