You feel the world is rushing by you While you're waiting for someone to understand You tend to see love as an island Where hopes like words are written in the sand When the only door sends you back Nothing you live for, ever lasts (Chorus:) Every second's so slow, every hour's so low You wanna put your arms around someone who doesn't wanna let you go When the love you're in, baby just can't win, It doesn't mean you're meant to alone 'Cause the grass will grow, and the river will flow, And your heart will know You feel you're watching through a window, I know what you want is just beyond your touch Your heart flies any way the wind blows, while everybody else is finding love You're one sweet thing, your light of day, It was all you live for, turned away (Chorus) One day everything may change, The sun will shine, the day will come to greet you All the rain will blow away, When at last you find someone who needs you, needs you, yeah Gotta trust the things you feel, when you do, You know your heart will guide you Now you wait for the sun, and the morning to come When you can put your arms around someone who's never gonna let you go When the love you're in, baby just can't win, It doesn't mean you're meant to alone 'Cause the grass will grow, and the river will flow, And your heart will know The grass will grow, the river will flow And your heart will know
