Lady in Waiting

Lady in Waiting - Written by Paul Rose She carried all her bruises, kept the pain down deep inside Still laughs and still smiles like there’s no suffering to hide Sometimes we take wrong turns, and the path ahead feels unclear You stop looking for a saviour and choose to save yourself right here She’s got eyes that speak of kindness, no matter what the past has done She still offers up her shelter, and there’s no need to ask for one He’s walked through silent wars, taken body blows and more Built walls out of his laughter, picked himself up from the floor He knows the best kind of treasure lives inside a steady heart Been tending to the wounded ever since his own got torn apart When the wolves had him circled, and there seemed no way out He found the strength within to turn it all about Lady in Waiting, you’ve been waiting for so long Keeping that open heart, despite the weight of all the wrongs In the dark before the dawn, your anam cara comes along Lady in Waiting, you’ve been waiting for so long All the moments that you missed always felt so wrong Without the darkest days, you’d have been denied the road you’re on Now twin flames have found each other, and together burn so strong Now they sit in the garden like two kids who share a secret joke More mirth and wisdom in their laughter than most other folks If you’re looking to make mischief and rejoice in quiet miracles Remember it’s the little things that become our wherewithals In these golden years where you walk beneath the sun Trade those smiles, trade those laughs and know you’ve found your one Funny how the longest roads Sometimes end right where they should Two tired hearts finally finding A path together back to good Lady in Waiting, you’ve been waiting for so long Keeping that open heart, despite the weight of all the wrongs In the dark before the dawn, your anam cara comes along Lady in Waiting, you’ve been waiting for so long All the moments that you missed always felt so wrong Without the darkest days, you’d have been denied the road you’re on Now twin flames have found each other, and together burn so strong All the years fall away like autumn leaves in the sun And the best is still to come… Twin flames ablaze where two rivers run… Lady in Waiting… the waiting’s finally done. #music #americana #singersongwriter #countrymusic #folkrock #90smusic
