Young man
Won't you open your eyes
Hold open your arms
It's all in your hands

The wind would rise
And blow straight through the land
Leaving you in the hands
Of the past

Still a young man
But counting your days
Said your prayers
Got no more to pray
So you wait and you wait
For the weather to change
Can't just sit here and wait
For the weather to change

You wait and you wait
For the weather to change
Can't just sit here and wait
For the weather to change

They won't come for you
You will wait in the rain
As the sky sheds its tears
You'll feel your fears
Still a young man
But counting your days
Said your prayers
Got no more to pray
So you wait and you wait
For the weather to change
Can't just sit here and wait
For the weather to change

You wait and you wait
For the weather to change
Can't just sit here and wait
For the weather to change

You wait and you wait
For the weather to change
Can't just sit here and wait
For the weather to change

You wait and you wait
For the weather to change
Can't just sit here and wait
For the weather to change

Time will pass
Years will slip through your hands
Years will slip through your hands
And turn to dust
