It's entirely my fault
Know that, if
The two of us often waver

No, it's not your fault
Know that, if
The two of us sway
From time to time

I wish so much that it works
That I don't tell you everything
So that you come back to me happy

I wish so much that it works
That I don't tell you everything
But I never stopped being in love

So I'm waiting for life to pass
For time to take its toll
I'm scared when I think about it
Of forgetting who I was but

I'm waiting
For your desire to resurrect
I'm waiting
For your anger to dissipate
I'm waiting
For my hope to decide
Now, to take matters into my own hands

I'm waiting
For your desire to succeed
I'm waiting
For our children to flourish
I'm waiting
For myself, to fade away
In the face of what awaits me tomorrow

We will remember from our ambition
That it was dignified
With a hint of utopia

We will remember from our passion
That it was delicate
Not the kind that destroys

I wish so much that it works
That I would get used to
Putting my title back on the line

I wish so much that it works
And I would start over if necessary
Even if I think we could do even better

So I'm waiting for life to pass
For time to take its toll
I'm scared when I think about it
Of eroding, of wearing out

I'm waiting
For your desire to resurrect
I'm waiting
For your anger to dissipate
I'm waiting
For my hope to decide
Now, to take matters into my own hands

I'm waiting
For your desire to succeed
I'm waiting
For our children to flourish
I'm waiting
For myself, to fade away
In the face of what awaits me tomorrow

For tomorrow
For tomorrow
For tomorrow
