Lyrics

[Verse 1]
At first flesh of Eden
We raced down to the sea
Standing there on freedom's shore
[Verse 2]
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
[Verse 3]
Can't you feel it
Now that spring has come?
That it's time to live in the scattered sun
[Verse 4]
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
[Verse 5]
Waiting, waiting
Waiting, waiting
Waiting, waiting
Waiting, waiting
[Verse 6]
Waiting for you to come along
Waiting for you to hear my song
Waiting for you to come along
Waiting for you to tell me what went wrong
[Verse 7]
This is the strangest life I've ever known
[Verse 8]
Can't you feel it
Now that spring has come?
That it's time to live in the scattered sun
[Verse 9]
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
