BEN HARPER - Waiting on a Sign lyrics

rate me

I didn't come here

Trying to find forgiveness

I didn't come here

Looking for a fix

I didn't come here

In hopes of seeing

How the unforsaken get their kicks

It's like a cry for help nobody hears

Close as you can get

But I'm still nowhere near

Now I'm just down here

Waiting on a sign

I'm running out of time

I'm here waiting on a sign

A mother is only happy as her saddest child

To learn to live without can take awhile

And it's a long way back to anywhere

And it's not too late but it's getting there

Like a cry for help that nobody hears

Close as you can get

But I'm still nowhere near

I'm just here waiting on your sign

I'm running out of time

So you blow a veil of smoke

To protect yourself from the joke

Look around this room and say,

"Man, I don't belong here."

There's so many sides to to the truth

But only one side to a fact

What will we do with what we can't take back?

Like a cry, like a cry for help

That nobody hears

Close as you can get but I'm still

Nowhere near
