I feel sorrow for the fear
And everything it brings
Wonder if it will ever sleep
I know you understand
'Cause you briefly look away
Focusing on nothing

So now everything is clear
'Cause there's
No one to blame
You got no place to hide
It's only in your mind
And I saw you
In amazement stumbling
Through the day

You told me
Time never waits
What is that
Supposed to mean?
All of life
Is in one drop
Of the ocean
Waiting to go home
Just waiting to go home

And if the moon
Can turn the tides
It can pull the tears
And take 'em
From our eyes
And make 'em
Into monsoons
And turn 'em
Into monsoon-er
Or later

They'll weep
Their way back
To the sea
Gonna finally be free
Yeah, free for a while
Until they break
Like waves of sorrow
Always do
All in due time
'Cause time never waits

Daddy
Don't daydream again
Just help me
To believe and then
Show me that there's
More than the mean time
Sonny
Do you hear the sound?
You will feel it
When it breaks
You will know it
When it's gone
How else can I explain?

'Cause it's only the pain
Coming straight through
Coming to remind
Cross cut to you
In amazement stumbling
Through the day
You tell me
Time never waits

That's okay
'Cause I don't wait
For time
When all of life
Is in one drop
Of the ocean
Waiting to go home
Just waiting
To go home

And if the moon
Can turn the tides
It can pull the tears
And take 'em
From our eyes
And turn 'em
Into monsoons
And make em
Into monsoon-er
Or later
They'll weep
Their way back
To the sea

Gonna finally be free
Free for a while
Until they break (mmmm)
Like waves of sorrow
Always break
All in due time
'Cause time never waits
