I'm tired of apartments And waiting for you The eyelids are heavy On this wandering jew If it takes you all night If it takes you a lie I will wait for you I'll await your reply I watched many men With hearts in their hands And a cruelty of questions That they can't understand And I am but one Who suffer and yearn For my will to be taken My love be returned If it takes you all night If it takes you a lie I will wait for you I'll await your reply I've given you one night for the smallest hint of a sign If it takes you all night If it takes you a lie If it takes you all night I will trust you, I'll try Away with my sorrow And away with my fear The city you promised Will it ever appear I'll hand myself over Go freely with love Like fumes of a candle That rise to the above And the hourglass whistles As the sand fades away And the stars are preparing To rest for the day And I can see it coming It's painfully clear You belong to someone Or it all end in tears
