Songtext Two places at once The Church

Two places at once

Arrive in a hive city
Somewhere in the east
Floating down a crowded street
As though I am or I will be released
Ellys stopped yawning, clear blue morning
In mourning no more
Come and see the wild things that are
Just beyond the door

(well) theres an old man here
He claims that he knew you in another life
Im not sure what hes sayin, elly,
Could it be he still thinks youre his wife ?

Chorus:
Ive been waiting, seems like eternity
Ive been waiting waiting for you
Im still waiting if you remember me
Ill be waiting, waiting for you

Trinkets sing on a desert wind behind here
Where ghosts have laid their final claims to rest
But who they left and what they thought they stayed for
Has crumbled in their last dusty caress

They were so blind (rpt.)

(steve)
Hiding in a hotel room, somewhere in the west
I heard they brought a priest in to sanctify the place
But it remains unblessed
Things move around - my guitar sometimes plays itself
They say its static electricity but
Yesterday it took twenty dollars off the shelf

Theres a young man here, says he married you
In another time
The children cry and ask where their mother is
Gonna have to let them down
Yeah, Ive been hurt, Ive been around

Ive been waiting...(rpt.)

Limpet shells are fading in the vally
Where once the sea had strength enough to reach
But out of the twisted metal of discarded fortunes curse
No-one here can quite translate the verses that they wanted to preach
They were blind

They were so blind (rpt.)

Ive been waiting, seems like eternity

Ive been waiting, waiting for you

Im still waiting, if you remember me

Ill be waiting, waiting for you
