Waiting For My Real Life To Begin Lyrics

Any minute now, my ship is coming in
I'll keep checking the horizon
I'll
stand on the bow, feel the waves come crashing
Come crashing down down down,
on me

And you say, be still my love
Open up your heart
Let the
light shine in
But don't you understand
I already have a plan
I'm
waiting for my real life to begin

When I awoke today, suddenly nothing
happened
But in my dreams, I slew the dragon
And down this beaten path,
and up this cobbled lane
I'm walking in my old footsteps, once again
And
you say, just be here now
Forget about the past, your mask is wearing
thin
Let me throw one more dice
I know that I can win
I'm waiting for
my real life to begin

Any minute now, my ship is coming in
I’ll
keep checking the horizon
And I'll check my machine, there's sure to be that
call
It's gonna happen soon, soon, soon
It's just that times are
lean

And you say, be still my love
Open up your heart, let the light
shine in
Don't you understand
I already have a plan
I'm waiting for my
real life to begin
