I know that you are worth waiting for

But I don't have the time

I've been waiting for years already

But that didn't make you mine



My clock is ticking faster

Than I ever thought it would

So I can't wait for your love

God knows I wish I could



Right there in the mist before me

I see its ghostly scheme

Stretching cast-iron fingers

Upon a blood-red stream



This bridge has been the hope of many

For just as many it has been the end

Now I'm the next in line to lay my life

Faithfully into this hand



I know that you are worth waiting for

But I don't have the time

I've been waiting for years already

But that didn't make you mine



My clock is ticking faster

Than I ever thought it would

So I can't wait for your love

God knows I wish I could



There's a bridge ahead that spans a river wide

If you don't dare the walk, you won't reach my side



If you walk that bridge, the bridge may break

But that's a risk that you will have to take



If it breaks, the river takes you in

And a whole new journey will begin



There's a secret down in that river deep

But those who find it don't come back to speak
