Expecting - The Call

All at once it happens

You find yourself involved

No escape can hide you

Sleep provides no rest at all

Can’t go on like this much longer

Meet me in this lonely place

Can’t go on like this much longer

Lift the veil and let it fall

Caught beneath the surface

Worlds lie in between

You know the search will tae you

Out beyond the world of things

What am I to say here?

(can't go on like this forever)

Words so often fail (meet me in this lonely place)

How am I to wake you (can't go on like this much longer)

From your sleep?

(lift the veil and let it fall)

And lift the veil from your eyes

Will I find love with you?

I expect love from you (all my expectations)

Will I find love here with you?

(fall upon this frozen ground)

(Fall upon this holy ground)

Did not mean to hurt you

It was envy I suppose

Once that passion takes you

It chills the body and the soul

What am I to say here?

(can't go on like this forever)

Words so often fail (meet me in this lonely place)

How am I to wake you (can't go on like this much longer)

From your sleep?

(lift the veil and let it fall)

And lift the veil from your eyes

Will I find love with you?

I expect love from you (all my expectations)

Will I find love here with you?

(fall upon this frozen ground)

(Fall upon this holy ground)

Telling every wish and secret

Saying every word out loud

Can’t go on like this much longer

Cannot hide here in this crowd

Why you chose to bear this likeness

Live inside this skin and bone

Wrath becomes the loving kindness

Heals the body and the soul

Waking every sleeping passion

Every single thought restored

Can’t go on like this much longer

Lift the veil and let it fall
