lyrics
Waiting For Words
Are you an island out on the rolling sea
or are you the mirror of those who just can't reach me
I can't break free from this longing in my heart
I fight a restless wind that somehow keeps up far apart
Chorus: I read between the lines and wonder what I've heard
You say that your the fool but I'm the one waiting for your words
You walk the line I push the edge
we put up all these walls
your on the fence lately I can't wait for you to fall
You pace the floor you shake your head
you look me up and down
you push me away you pull me close
then you turn it all around
Chorus: I read between the lines and wonder what I've heard
You say that your the fool but I'm the one waiting for your words
Here we are exactly where we need to be
I love the way you want me now
the way you don't need me
I have to walk away from what it is I think I've found
you're so far away baby I could never hold you down
Chorus: I read between the lines and wonder what I've heard
You say that your the fool but I'm the one waiting for your words
Are you an island out on the rolling sea
or are you the mirror of those who just can't reach me
Are you an island out on the rolling sea
or are you the mirror of those who just can't reach me
I can't break free from this longing in my heart
I fight a restless wind that somehow keeps up far apart
Chorus: I read between the lines and wonder what I've heard
You say that your the fool but I'm the one waiting for your words
You walk the line I push the edge
we put up all these walls
your on the fence lately I can't wait for you to fall
You pace the floor you shake your head
you look me up and down
you push me away you pull me close
then you turn it all around
Chorus: I read between the lines and wonder what I've heard
You say that your the fool but I'm the one waiting for your words
Here we are exactly where we need to be
I love the way you want me now
the way you don't need me
I have to walk away from what it is I think I've found
you're so far away baby I could never hold you down
Chorus: I read between the lines and wonder what I've heard
You say that your the fool but I'm the one waiting for your words
Are you an island out on the rolling sea
or are you the mirror of those who just can't reach me

about
Melanie J. Hebert Oshawa, Ontario
One of the things I love most about being a Songwriter is how you can connect with a person’s innermost thoughts ,dreams and fears. If you know me chances are you're already in my songs. I've poured my Heart into each and every one of these songs, they have been lessons and reflections of the many sides of me. It is one of the truest joys in my life to be able to share these songs with you. ... more
