Waits for Me

It comes in waves

Diligence or apathy

It lays in wait for me

When I was a little girl

I wanted to be free

I wanted to be free

I wanted to be all of the things

My mother wanted me to be

When all of the days I had

Feel something like a dream

Then life is but a dream

It's nothing but a wisp on the wind

I almost didn't feel

It comes in waves

Memory and empathy

It stays and waits with me

When I was a little boy

I wanted to be real

I wanted to be real

I wanted to be all of the things

My body wanted me to feel

When I fell in love

My wonder burning in the sun

Exactly like the sun

Exactly like a call of the wild

I almost didn't hear
