All My Life
All my life I have waited
All the time hesitated
With the eyes of a child
All my dreams they run wild
Spent my days with rain fallin'
All around me voices callin'
Dancin' shadows filled with passion
Drivin' me for reaction

All my life
I have wanted to be free and
Everyday's another mystery
And somewhere there's a reason
For standing alone

There at night
Empty footsteps
Striking poses
Brought down
Can't deny
I'm a screamin'
In my sleep
The words run dry

All my life
I have wanted to be free
And everyday's another mystery
But somehow all my visions
Are turnin' to stone
All too fast
We can't last
So afraid to fly
Turnin' round
With that sound
It's still goodbye
It instills you with the dream
That you can go home
Knowin' all the time
You can never go home again
Yeah
All my life I have waited
All the time hesitated
With the eyes of a child
All my dreams they just run wild
All my life
I have wanted to be free and
Everyday's another mystery
And somewhere there's a reason
For standin' alone

(All my life)
I have waited
(All my life)
Hesitated
(All my dreams)
Have been fallin'
(All around me)
Voices calling
(All my life)
I've been runnin'
(All the time)
We were runnin'
(All my life)
I have waited
(All my life)
Hesitated
(All my life)
