Waiting is the Plan

Boat adrift on the water
Wind at the stern, broken sail
Nowhere to go, leave or follow
Stay the course of nowhere now
Take in the view

What else can you do?
It’s out of your hands
‘Cause waiting, oh waiting has never been
The easiest thing for you
But waiting, oh waiting, is the plan

Oh I bet that you were hoping
For a better strategy
One linked to someone’s genius
Not one that leaves you floating at sea
I can understand that

You got every right to be as angry
As you want to be, as you need to be
I’ll be standing on the shore
Waiting to see some history
Watching the Sun set in the west

Hoping to God for the best
And waiting, oh waiting
Waiting is the plan
Classic case of paradox
Shipwrecked on the rocks
And holding out hope

That someone will see your fire
‘Cause it’s a long, long story
You gotta keep the fire burning
Keep the fire burning
Keep the fire burning
