Waiting in the Rain

Mmm, waiting here alone

With these prayers and broken trust

I light a candle every night, praying for your freedom's dawn

While our children sleep, asking when their daddy's coming home

I heard the names whispered soft, Ange and Kabanyana too

They say you gave your heart away, but mine still beats for you

Oh, these walls are closing in, but I keep holding on

Love and regret dance together in this painful song

I'm waiting in the rain for you

Though you broke every vow we made

Still praying that you'll make it through

This love won't fade, it won't fade away

Yeah, I'm waiting, still waiting for you

Our babies got your eyes, they got your gentle smile

I tell them stories of the man I thought you were all the while

Behind those bars you're counting days, I'm counting all the lies

But somehow in this broken heart, forgiveness still survives

Mmm, that's right

I'm torn between the past and what tomorrow brings

Still wearing your ring, through all these painful things

I'm waiting in the rain for you

Though you broke every vow we made

Still praying that you'll make it through

This love won't fade, it won't fade away

Oh, I'm waiting, still waiting for you

With love and regrets, mmm

I'm still here, waiting
