Steve Earle - I Can Wait lyrics

In the blink of an eye
Stars will fall from the sky
No one even notices

If you think it'll help
I can walk out myself
We won't have to go through this

If I pretend to hold you tight
Out on the highway late some night
That's all right and that is all it takes
Even then my heart breaks i can wait

I had nothing but time
And this poor heart of mine
Probably could use some rest

When the ghosts are all gone
You can leave your light on
Shining through the loneliness

Just like a beacon in the night
Brighter than any star in sight
That's all right

For as long as it takes
For that morning to break
Darling, I can wait

Out where the mountains meet the sky
Feeling so lonesome I could cry
But that's all right

Because all the signs say
You'll call me someday darling, I can wait
