LYRICS

I've been sitting on top of these rocks

Watching the waters rise

Everyone that I have loved has gone floating by

I've been praying for the king of the world to come and rescue me

From a land that's lost in dreams

From a land that's lost in dreams

 

Are you waiting for the heavens

Are you waiting for the heavens to descend

Wading for the, wading for the deep end, the deep end, the deep end

Are you waiting for the heavens

Are you waiting for the heavens to descend

Wading for the, wading for the deep end, the deep end, the deep end

 

I've been looking through microscopes to see how all life begins

I've been training my lens on the stars to see where it ends

But it's this living in between that is bringing me down

To a land that's lost in dreams

To a land that's lost in dreams

To a land that's lost in dreams

 

Are you waiting for the heavens

Are you waiting for the heavens to descend

Wading for the, wading for the deep end, the deep end, the deep end

Are you waiting for the heavens

Are you waiting for the heavens to descend

Wading for the, wading for the deep end, the deep end, the deep end

 

Heavens (repeat to end)
