In The Meantime lyrics

She waits alone She gets tired As the day falls down She seems uninspired She won't wait Much longer And the tears held back Make her stronger In the meantime I get open eyed To my lowly state of mind The kindest thing That she's seen Is an open mouth Without a scream At her feet Like water The reflection there Is getting darker In the meantime I get open eyed To my lowly state of mind If I can't hear her Will I ever know A love that's meant to grow All my life I've wondered how The things I've been Could make a difference in the end But every day it seems more clear I don't know how I'd make it through If you weren't here
