Lyrics

Waiting for Roses by Laura Moliter

Waiting for the chance to breathe out in space
Waiting for a sign of life by God’s sweet grace
Waiting for roses to bloom in the air

Waiting for the patience to keep on waiting
Waiting for a masterpiece of God’s creating
Waiting for roses to bloom in the air

Chorus:

At the wall through dances
Cursing circumstances
Tired of graceless answers
Tired of howling at the moon.

Waiting for the long lost child to find its way
Waiting for a love, content, to come and stay
Waiting for roses to bloom in the air.

Looking in the eyes of promise, turning away
Listening for a simple answer, forgetting to pray
Waiting for roses to bloom in the air.

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:

Holding out, holding on, holding out
I’m even too tired….
Holding out, holding on, holding out
I'm even to tired, too tired to sing the blues

Waiting for the denouement to close the story
Waiting for God’s pure design to show its glory
Waiting for roses to bloom in the air.
