Steve Earle — I Can Wait

In the blink of an eye Stars will fall from the sky No one even notices If you think it'll help I can walk out myself We won't have to go through this If I pretend to hold you tight Out on the highway late some night That's all right And that is all it takes Even then my heart breaks I can wait I had nothing but time And this poor heart of mine Probably could use some rest When the ghosts are all gone You can leave your light on Shining through the loneliness Just like a beacon in the night Brighter than any star in sight That's all right For as long as it takes For that morning to break Darling, I can wait Out where the mountains meet the sky Feeling so lonesome I could cry But that's all right Because all the signs say You'll call me someday Darling, I can wait
