Lyrics Sam Roberts

Sam Roberts

Uprising Down Under

You feel the weight of the world on your shoulder

As every day gets shorter and colder

And hand in hand we walk through a land of fire

The mountains bleed red as the sun gets higher

All the things that you want, I'll provide

Till your footprint is swept away by the tide

I can wait for a while, I don't mind

I can wait for a while 'cause I got time

I wish it was less of the way it is

I wish it were more of the way it could be

You can put your faith in me for a while

In the end I hope you're free 'cause I'll be out of style

All the things that you want, I'll provide

Till your footprint is swept away by the tide

And I can wait for a while, I don't mind

Yeah, I can wait for a while, I got time, I got time

Whoever said you can't be saved by a song?

Whoever said that was stringing you along

We're all afraid to be dead and gone

This will live on, it will live on, it will live on

And all the things that you want, I'll provide

Till your footprint is swept away by the tide

And I can wait for a while, I don't mind

Yeah, I can wait for a while, I got time

And all the things you're looking for, I hope you'll find

Before your footprint is swept away by the tide

And I can wait for a while, I don't mind

Yeah, I can wait for a while, I got time

And I can wait for a while, I don't mind

Yeah, I can wait for a while, I got time, I got time
