Stand in a crowd
Screaming
Anybody out there
I feel so alone
You look around
For something
That medicates the pain
But refuse to come back home
You let it swallow you up
It's never enough
You're looking around for the cure
The revelation's the same
The pleasure and pain
Won't get you back to where you were
You forgot your first love
Chorus
When you sleep
Are you dreaming of me
When you hear
Is it words that I speak
When you love
Is it my heart that beats
I'm waiting
I'm waiting
When you look
Is it me that you see
When you fall
Is it my hands that bleed
When you hurt
Don't you wanna be free
I'm waiting
I'm waiting
You have a choice
It's easy
I won't make it for you
But how could you resist
Stay in the mud
Depraved
Keep walking by yourself
Or return to what you've missed
I don't care how far you're lost
I'll cover the cost
Just give me back your prodigal heart
With no conditions defined
Forever
Cause I just want you back inside my arms
Bridge
I've been watching all the roadways home
Anticipating that you'll come alone
Seeing your face will be like breaking dawn
And you know I'll be running out to meet you
And everything will fall away
The earth and stars will celebrate
But for now all I can do is wait
You're so close but still so far away
Cause you forgot your first love
