3) Good Things Happen to Those Who Wait [Amelia]
LYRICS:
Dedicated by Angie Cope to her family - the best she could ever have wished for.
GOOD THINGS HAPPEN
TO THOSE WHO WAIT
Good things happen to those who wait.
My infinite wait goes on and on...
Put on a smile, pretend we're all fine,
I let my feelings fade.
For now, for now it's just an act,
it's my well-rehearsed charade.
I am numb,
it expels the air within me,
until I question its return.
Numb, no room for dreams,
I sit and watch them burn.
My walls fall down around me,
the shield I held is gone,
and all that's left is silence
for the strength to carry on.
I longed to be a mother,
to start a family of my own,
to give a child all my love,
the strength of which unknown.
The wish was all consuming,
it was all that could persist,
and now inside this prison cell
I yearn for what I miss.
I am numb,
it expels the air within me,
until I beg for its return.
Numb, no room for dreams,
I sit and watch them burn.
My walls fall down around me,
The shield I held is gone,
and all that's left is silence
for the strength to carry on.
I had a man who loved me,
and this was all I'd ever need.
Collect the pieces of my broken dreams,
one day I will succeed.
For now I must protect my life,
resist the looming, looming grey.
I'm thankful of the life I have,
I thank God every day.
Good things happen to those who wait.
My infinite wait goes on and on.
