In the Wings

I didn't know then

How a moment weaves in

To all of the lives lived since

And can unravel all of them

I see you in the wings

Just before the show begins

I spend a lot of time in

The gallery of memory

The walls are thin

Somehow I thought you'd be waiting

Crazy, the things we'll believe

To keep from grieving

I see you in the wings

Forever in the wings

Just before the show begins

One more touch of your skin

I kept the lot empty

So anything could fit

The weeds grew in it

Keeping me separate

From all I wanted

From all I wanted

Let it begin

Let it begin

Let it begin

Let it begin
