Waiting

Marcel Coenen


The darkness comes, it is the calm before the storm 
All the lights are being buried in the mist 
I hear someone's calling in this silent night 
It is foreseen what we are waiting for... 
What we are waiting for 

Shadow rising, thunder in the east 
Soon there will be engines roaring, silence will be gone 
But, no one knows what's waiting, I hope we will be spared 
No need to worry yet, we must live our dreams 

We are not in vain 
We have to keep our faith 
It is time for us to be strong 

Dreams... must be kept, we have to hold on tight 
We must face our fears 
Still... we don't know what we are waiting for 
Will our fears come true 

Children's sleeping, midnight's closing in 
It's getting darker every minute that goes by 
This misty night will be remembered till the end of days 
What are we waiting for, is it beyond our dreams 

Keep our children safe 
They don't need to know 
Our love has to be strong 

Dreams... must be kept, we have to hold on tight 
We must face our fears 
Still... we don't know what we are waiting for 
Will our fears come true 

Someone's calling, thunder's rolling in 
The hour's late and beams of light strikes through the sky 
The sun is rising and the children's slowly awakening 
Night turns to day, I wonder, our dreams will remain
