Staring at the mountains, the hills that roll off near
The path that wanders in between
I sometimes think I see you, somewhere on the way
But you are neither there nor here
My eyes are tired of staring after you
It only seems like yesterday, you said you’d be here soon
Shall I wait by the door, like I’ve done for fifteen years or more
Or shall I walk from here
In the hours of darkness I wonder what I’m waiting for
You’ll never show up be here
I picture you are resting, on a mountain pass
Not so very far from here
The valley’s not much further, just over the ridge
But you’re afraid to wander on
My mind is tired of making excuses for you
It only seems like yesterday, you said you’d be here soon
Shall I wait by the door, like I’ve done for fifteen years or more
Or shall I walk from here
In the hours of darkness I wonder what I’m waiting for
You’ll never show up be here
So tired of waiting here
