Sara Bareilles
Waiting To See
[Verse 1]
The darkness of these starlit skies
Sets down upon my tired eyes
And I'm waiting for the last uncertainty
I've walked along these streets before
And, it always seemed, outside your door
The heaviness subsides so I can breathe
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm waiting to see you
Waiting to be you
Waiting to see
[Chorus]
If I can breathe you in, if you'll let me out
Of this caged up soul that I've created that surrounds me now
If there's truth inside you, or a demon in me
If you ask me what I'm waiting for, I'm waiting to see
[Verse 2]
The hazy dawn and morning's light
Awake me, and you're in my sight
But I'm not sure if my feelings yet have grown
The fear that plagues the heart of me
Dances in the part of me
That faces everything I've ever known
[Pre-Chorus]
But I'm waiting to feel you
Scared of the real you
Waiting to see
[Chorus]
If I can breathe you in, if you'll let me out
Of this caged up soul that I've created that surrounds me now
If there's truth inside you, or a demon in me
If you ask me what I'm waiting for, I'm waiting to see
[Bridge]
What I might be
If released from chains that bind me from within
But I'm holding out from feelings of doubt
That capture my release, and I'm waiting peace
[Outro]
So come in, ooh, let me out
Oh, let me out, oh
Oh, oh, ooh
Ask me what I'm waiting for
I'm waiting to see
