The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
A fragile moth is clinging to the plaster The pretty thing is sitting in the light The moth has lingered, calm for many hours I don't know why it's waiting in the night A lady waits, her golden ring a-twinkling A hundred years, she's waited for her love "He'll come again," she tells me as she sits there She knows he died, yet still believes he lives Waiting for deeper things The moth and lady stay, waiting, waiting What are we all waiting for? Maybe for the light that brings us home One waits for years, one only waits for hours They wait for reasons we don't understand And in the end, they're part of all things waiting But do we know what we are waiting for? Waiting for deeper things The moth and lady stay, waiting, waiting What are we all waiting for? Maybe for the light that brings us home In time, the lady's golden ring stops twinkling It's deep and dark, enshrouded in her grave Her waiting's over at her sweet reunion A hundred years was worth her deeper joy And in the night, the moth continues waiting And then the day will live as did the night The moth will wave its sparkly wings and lift off Then I'll know the light it waited for Waiting for deeper things The moth and lady stay, waiting, waiting What are we all waiting for? Maybe for the light that brings us home Waiting for deeper things The moth and lady stay, waiting, waiting What are we all waiting for? Maybe for the light that brings us home Well maybe for the light that brings us home Well maybe for the light that brings us home
