Lyrics
Waiting for the Light to Change
Words & Music by Dave Nachmanoff
I've been sitting at this stoplight
But I must be moving on
I've got to get to where I'm going
But it's taking me so long
And I can feel the pressure rising
You know I wanna honk my horn
And I haven't even noticed
But it's a beautiful Sunday morn
Chorus:
And now I'm, waiting for the light to change
Waiting for the light to change
Waiting for the light to change
In my heart, in my heart
Have you ever felt depression
When it seemed like endless night
You're stumbling in the darkness
And you're searching for a light
You can't live like this forever
But you don't know what to do
You've got to look inside your heart
And find that light that's inside of you
repeat Chorus with "you're" instead of "I'm"
It's been raining several weeks now
It feels like Noah at the flood
It's gonna take awhile, before we dig out from this mud
You know the sky's been dark and cloudy
And so we haven't seen the sun
We're all getting cabin fever, while we're waiting for it to come
Repeat Chorus with "we're"
Well it seems like we're surrounded
With both ignorance and greed
There's people getting what they pay for
Instead of getting what they need
And there's a hunger in their belly
And there's a hunger in their soul
You know they won't be satisfied
Until they feel like they're in control
Repeat Chorus with "they're"
