(Verse 1)
Here I lie waiting, Your nightingale is calling
My eyes are fainting, just like an eagle falling
My heart is hiding, feeling too raw for too long

(Verse 2)
Change in the weather
The leaves will shake and whisper
But in december, the silence of the winter
Losing my starlight, or am I just losing my mind

 

(Pre-chorus)
I’m looking for the feeling
Hoping for the touch of mercy
I’m waiting for the healing

And all I feel is the hurting

That greets me in the morning time

And kisses me goodnight

Oh Lord...

(Chorus)
Will You send some mercy my way
When will You send some mercy
Send some mercy my way
Will You send some mercy

(Verse 3)
No more illusions of shiny happy faces
Distorted visions, mirrors and barren places
Madness and pleasure
Is where I can find some relief

(Verse 4)
The cup of trembling, the wine of celebration
The never ending chorus of lamentation
Now tell me Father, You’re saving the best for last

(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)

(Bridge)
You told me to let my light shine in the darkness
You told me to stand fast, and lift up a song
And treasure these moments for life is so short
But sometimes...
Sometimes it feels much too long!

(Chorus)
