Verse 1: How long would you wait and watch your world turn away another hour another day standing to your own grave and If I die before I get back to New York I won't have anything to show all my life I hesitate and watch the world passed by it never seems to change Chorus 1: And be free from this aching Never be where I name in Verse 2: What else can I say I got this all inside the cage I sit on fire the weather plan no one hears it in my brain and and If I die before I get back to New York I won't have anything to share Chorus 2: And be free from this aching Never be where I name in Verse 3: all my life I hesitate and watch the world passed by it never seems to change and If I die before I get back to New York I won't have anything to show Chorus 3: And be free from this aching Never be where I name in And be free from this aching Never be where I name in
