There's a scared child behind angry words
Sometimes what you say is so absurd
I am reaching out against the trend
You'll still find me here if you need a friend
I just don't understand why you're bringing me down
when there's so much madness to be found,
when my mind is finally halfway sound
I will wait for you love Come around

Life was simpler without you here
when your problems didn't reach my ear
I will borrow you for this night
and to sorrow we will say goodbye

I just don't understand why you're bringing me down
when there's so much madness to be found,
when my mind is finally halfway sound
I will wait for you love Come around

When the people seem to lose their voice
and are victims to the evil choice,
Can we rise from this darkness yet?
Can we live our lives without regret?

I just don't understand why you're bringing me down
when there's so much madness to be found,
when my mind is finally halfway sound
I will wait for you love Come around

There's a wisdom for this crazy time
There's a hopefulness that is sublime
We will follow the better way,
reach for beauty today

I just don't understand why you're bringing me down
when there's so much madness to be found,
when my mind is finally halfway sound
I will wait for you love Come around
I will wait for you love Come around
I will wait for you love Come around
