Sara Groves Lyrics
"I'll Wait"

I can't run with the horses
If I can't keep up with men
I can fight all these forces
On my own and never win
I can take it from here
And have nowhere to go
I could take it for years
And have nothing to show

I can work like the devil
Build a tower to the sky
I can work for my possessions
Till they empty me of life
I can build my own house
And be building in vain
I can plant a seed
But I can't bring the rain

I'll wait for you
Now more than ever
I see it's true
Now more than ever
I'll wait for you now

I can take my own vengeance
Make a war of all my pain
I can get my own insurance
Find a way to lay the blame
I can win the whole world
And lose my own soul
Holding on for dear life
Spinning out of control

I'll wait for you
Now more than ever
I see it's true
Now more than ever
I'll wait for you now

I don't want to do this by myself
I know I need your help
And so I'm waiting for you

I can take it from here
And have nowhere to go
I can take it for years
And have nothing to show

I'll wait for you
Now more than ever
I see it's true
Now more than ever
I'll wait for you

I don't want to do this by myself
I know I need your help
And so I'm waiting for you
