[Verse 1]
There was a picture of you
Swingin' an ax above your head
Oh it made me ache, it made me ache
What was that song we used to sing
Your breath between my lips
Oh it made me shake, it made me shake
In the bed that we once shared
Though we both were freezing
My hands were chained, my hands were chained
Two matches side by side
All that we were missing
The smallest flame, the smallest flame
[Chorus]
Were you waiting
Were you waiting
Were you waiting there for me
Were you waiting
Were you waiting
Were you waiting there for me
[Verse 2]
In the dark night you took my hand
And led me to a clearing
There we lay, there we lay
The world is filled with secrets
You told me yours
Set the grass ablaze, set the grass ablaze
I was not 'lone but I was waiting for you
In the dark night of the heart
[Chorus]
You were waiting
You were waiting
You were waiting there for me
You were waiting
You were waiting
You were waiting there for me
You were waiting
You were waiting
You were waiting there for me
