Steve Earle - I Can Wait lyrics

rate me

In the blink of an eye

Stars'll fall from the sky

No one even notices

If you think it'll help

I can walk out myself

And we won't have to go through this

If I pretend to hold you tight

And out on the highway late some night

That's all right

If that's all that it takes

Even if my heart breaks

Darlin' I can wait

I have nothin' but time

And this poor heart of mine

Probably could use some rest

When the ghosts are all gone

You can leave your light on

Shinin' through the loneliness

Just like a beacon in the night

Brighter than any star in sight

But that's all right

For as long as it takes

For that mornin' to break

Darlin' I can wait

Out where the mountains meet the sky

Feelin' so lonesome I could cry

But that's all right

'Cause all the signs say

You'll call me someday

Darlin' I can wait
