We Wait Too Long

Stranger in the rain outside my glass

Every night you pass a vision in my mind

Your hand reaches out for the taking

Danger tantalizing me with somebody like you

Can be so heartbreaking

You need to bear, all the birds are singing out to please take care

We wait too long for the moment to be right

We wait too long for the perfect danger to enlighten

Wait too long

I regret to say that it's so sad

Never got around to thinks that we imagine that we try

Waiting for a message that could draw near

That could dam the tears that dwell up the twinkling of an eye

We wait too long for the moment to be right

We wait too long for the perfect danger to enlighten

Wait too long

In doughnut common prayers so contrived

The ugly rumors have me gathered, yeah,

Things are still polite

But I will soon find something wrong for you to find in me

I will bend the melody until it bleeds

We wait too long for the moment to be right

We wait too long for the perfect danger to enlight

Wait too long
