Teardrops Waiting Lyrics

There are rainbows and antennas that whisper in the night

With silence in my heart I recognize

The morning is not far I see the fading of the stars

Memory of the day precedes the light

Sometimes in the morning when I look upon the hill

They’re crawling through the shrubs around my house

With an ominous kind of patience that reminds me of my Daddy

With an emptiness that time could never fill

We stood there side by side with reflections in our eyes

Of a rainbow that touched the both horizons

And the air above my hair became a sickened shade of bronze

My eyes prepared to watch the sun arising

Sun is arising

I’m standing on the border and I can’t find any water

I can’t find any air and I can’t find any seeds I’d like to throw

There’s a dust storm on a lake and it’s headed this way

I just can’t believe I suffered such a blow

Sitting on your sofa with your head against my elbow

I spent the evening listening to your lies

Now I’m watching from the exit all the teardrops on the pavement

Like the teardrops on my shoulder

Like the teardrops that are waiting in my eyes

For you

There’s teardrops waiting in my eyes for you
