The World Can Wait Lyrics

Over The Rhine The World Can Wait

if this should end tomorrow all our best laid plans and all our typical fears am I running out of lifetimes this is not the first time something ends in just tears

but tomorrow I can't imagine how am I supposed to know what's yet to go down ? is there only one religion the kind that whispers when nobody comes around ?

the world can wait the world can wait I wanna drink the water from your well I wanna tell you things i'll never tell the world can wait the world can wait i'm wide awake and the world can wait

I want to feel and then some I have five senses I need thousands more at least every day a page of paper every night a photograph a moveable feast

so fade to black and white now roll the movie of my life inside of my head 'cause like all true believers I am truly skeptical of all that I have said

the world can wait the world can wait I wanna drink the water from your well I wanna tell you things i'll never tell the world can wait the world can wait i'm wide awake and the world can wait

haven't I said enough haven't I said far too much haven't we done enough haven't we done far too much
