Bruce Cockburn - Looking and Waiting lyrics
[Bruce Cockburn - Looking and Waiting lyrics]
Looking and waiting it's what I do
Scanning the skies for a beacon from you
Shapes on the curtain, but no clear view
Of you
You're a warm bright window
Lighting up the rain
I catch a glimpse of the
Glow but I still remain
Outside where the shadows pool and bleed
Chimney silhouettes semaphore in a
Code I cannot read
Looking and waiting it's what I do
Scanning the skies for a beacon from you
Shapes on the curtain, but no clear view
Of you
You're like the leaves that come
Down from the trees
A suggestion of a springtime to be
Crunching underfoot outlined in frost
Full of promise for the
Return of something lost
Looking and waiting it's what I do
Scanning the skies for a beacon from you
Shapes on the curtain, but no clear view
Of you
Looking and waiting it's what I do
Scanning the skies for a beacon from you
Shapes on the curtain, but no clear view
Of you
You're a warm bright window
Lighting up the rain
I catch a glimpse of the
Glow but I still remain
Outside where the shadows pool and bleed
Chimney silhouettes semaphore in a
Code I cannot read
Looking and waiting it's what I do
Scanning the skies for a beacon from you
Shapes on the curtain, but no clear view
Of you
You're like the leaves that come
Down from the trees
A suggestion of a springtime to be
Crunching underfoot outlined in frost
Full of promise for the
Return of something lost
Looking and waiting it's what I do
Scanning the skies for a beacon from you
Shapes on the curtain, but no clear view
Of you
Looking and waiting it's what I do
