Waiting For The Sun
Sophie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been waiting night and day
I didn't see the time
I waited half my life away
There were lots of invitations
And I know you sent me some
But I was waiting for the miracle
For the miracle to come
I know you really loved me
But, you see, my hands were tied
I know it must have hurt you
It must have hurt your pride
To have to stand beneath my window
With your bugle and your drum
And me I'm up there waiting for the miracle
For the miracle to come
Ah, I don't believe you'd like it
You wouldn't like it here
There ain't no entertainment
And the judgements are severe
The Maestro says it's Mozart
But it sounds like bubble gum
When you're waiting for the miracle
For the miracle to come
Waiting for the miracle
There's nothing left to do
I haven't been this happy
Since the end of World War I I
Nothing left to do
When you know that you've been taken
Nothing left to do
When you're begging for a crumb
Nothing left to do
When you've got to go on waiting
Waiting for the miracle to come
I dreamed about you, baby
It was just the other night
Most of you was naked
Ah, but some of you was light
The sands of time were falling
From your fingers and your thumb
And you were waiting for the miracle
For the miracle to come
Ah baby, let's get married
We've been alone too long
Let's be alone together
Let's see if we're that strong
Yeah let's do something crazy
Something absolutely wrong
While we're waiting
For the miracle, for the miracle to come
Nothing left to do
When you know that you've been taken
Nothing left to do
When you're begging for a crumb
Nothing left to do
When you've got to go on waiting
Waiting for the miracle to come
When you've fallen on the highway
And you're lying in the rain
And they ask you how you're doing
Of course you'll say you can't complain
If you're squeezed for information
That's when you've got to play it dumb
You just say you're out there waiting
For the miracle, for the miracle to come

Line by Line Meaning
Baby, I've been waiting
I have been patiently anticipating
I've been waiting night and day
I have been waiting tirelessly, nonstop
I didn't see the time
I lost track of time
I waited half my life away
I spent a significant amount of time waiting
There were lots of invitations
I received numerous invitations
And I know you sent me some
And I know you extended invitations to me
But I was waiting for the miracle
But I was waiting for something extraordinary
For the miracle to come
For the extraordinary event to happen
I know you really loved me
I am aware that you truly cared for me
But, you see, my hands were tied
However, I was constrained and unable to pursue
I know it must have hurt you
I understand that it probably caused you pain
It must have hurt your pride
It must have wounded your ego
To have to stand beneath my window
To have to be below me, waiting
With your bugle and your drum
With your musical instruments, waiting
And me I'm up there waiting for the miracle
And I am up there, expecting something extraordinary
Ah, I don't believe you'd like it
Ah, I doubt you would enjoy it
You wouldn't like it here
You wouldn't find this place appealing
There ain't no entertainment
There is no form of amusement
And the judgements are severe
And the criticisms are harsh
The Maestro says it's Mozart
The Maestro claims it is Mozart
But it sounds like bubble gum
But it sounds trivial and superficial
When you're waiting for the miracle
When you are eagerly anticipating something extraordinary
For the miracle to come
For the extraordinary event to happen
Waiting for the miracle
Anticipating the extraordinary event
There's nothing left to do
There is nothing else to be done
I haven't been this happy
I have not felt this joyful
Since the end of World War I
Since the conclusion of World War I
Nothing left to do
No more tasks or actions remain
When you know that you've been taken
When you are aware that you have been deceived or manipulated
Nothing left to do
No more tasks or actions remain
When you're begging for a crumb
When you are desperately seeking just a small amount
Nothing left to do
No more tasks or actions remain
When you've got to go on waiting
When you have to continue enduring the waiting
Waiting for the miracle to come
Anticipating the arrival of the extraordinary event
I dreamed about you, baby
I had a dream about you, my love
It was just the other night
It occurred only a few nights ago
Most of you was naked
The majority of your body was unclothed
Ah, but some of you was light
However, a portion of you emitted brightness
The sands of time were falling
The passing of time was slipping away
From your fingers and your thumb
From your hands, specifically your fingers and thumb
And you were waiting for the miracle
And you were anticipating the extraordinary event
For the miracle to come
For the extraordinary event to happen
Ah baby, let's get married
Ah, my love, let's embark on matrimony
We've been alone too long
We have spent far too much time in solitude
Let's be alone together
Let's be together in our solitude
Let's see if we're that strong
Let's test if we possess such strength
Yeah let's do something crazy
Yes, let's engage in something incredibly reckless
Something absolutely wrong
Something that defies all moral or logical reasoning
While we're waiting
As we continue to wait
For the miracle, for the miracle to come
For the extraordinary event to happen
When you've fallen on the highway
When you have stumbled upon life's path
And you're lying in the rain
And you are lying there, wet from the rain
And they ask you how you're doing
And they inquire about your well-being
Of course you'll say you can't complain
Naturally, you will respond that you have no reasons to complain
If you're squeezed for information
If you are pressured to provide information
That's when you've got to play it dumb
That's when you have to act ignorant or clueless
You just say you're out there waiting
You simply state that you are out there, waiting
For the miracle, for the miracle to come
For the extraordinary event to happen
