I've watched you come and I've watched you go
A life so beautiful
Doused in the petals of the rose
Touched by the sun of gold
Inside the fire of the number-eight ball
To see if the penny will fall on
Easy come, easy go is what I'm playin' for
If I lose, easy come, easy go will get me through
If I had one more day of all days, I'd ask again
"Would you wait? Would you hold one for me?"
And when the weight on my shoulders is draggin' me under
Of my way, just to say that I've saved one for you
And when my timin' is numbered, count all the days 'til yesterday
As we have today for just you and me
And would you wait, would you wait here for me?
Have you ever looked under the night
Pretending that you can fly a million miles in just one hour?
A find of a childhood time
No regrets, no last goodbyes, we have all our time to shine
Easy come, easy go is what I'm playin' for
If I lose easy come, easy go will get me through
If I had one more day of all days, I'd ask again
"Would you wait? Would you hold one for me?"
And when the weight on my shoulders is draggin' me under
Of my way, just to say that I've saved one for you
And when my timin' is numbered, count all the days 'til yesterday
As we have today for just you and me
And would you wait, would you wait here for me?
And would you wait, would you wait like a man waits for his wife?
And would you wait, would you wait like the sea in a rushing tide
And would you wait, would you wait for me?
