Colin Hay - Waiting for My Real Life to Begin

6/30/2009 03:39:00 PM In ,

Any minute now, my ship is coming in
I'll keep checking the horizon I'll stand on the bow,
feel the waves come crashing
Come crashing down, down, down on me

And you say, be still my love
Open up your heart
Let the light shine in
But don't you understand
I already have a plan
I'm waiting for my real life to begin

When I awoke today, suddenly nothing happened
But in my dreams, I slew the dragon
And down this beaten path,
and up this cobbled lane
I'm walking in my old footsteps, once again

And you say, just be here now
Forget about the past,
your mask is wearing thin
Let me throw one more dice
I know that I can win
I'm waiting for my real life to begin
