Waiting In The Wings

© 2009 Mark Cote

1. A trusting heart once reached out and thought it found a home
    only to be left out. Cold and all alone
    can the taste of love be found again
    maybe in the eyes of a trusting friend

(bridge) you couldn't see through your pain
                all the love you have to gain
                you only had your fear
                a fear of being loved

2. roots of trust run deep and strong
    hard to rebuild once they are gone
    seasoned with luck and honesty
    will work if done with sincerity

(chorus) And I'll be waiting in the wings
                I'll be standing here for you
                hoping to be the one
                the one you come back to
                when the flower of love is ready to bloom

3. climb into the sea of love with one toe
    once you learn to swim, your new fins will grow
    always remember, to swim upstream
    never look back, at broken dreams

(chorus 2) And I'll be waiting in the wings
                  I'll be a beacon in the night
                  trying to show the way
                  to be your guiding light
                  when the embers of love are ready to ignite
