All who Wait

The cat walks softly through the house

Searching for his devoted mother

He wanders through the quiet rooms Each as empty as the others

Then he finds a quiet place

And patiently awaits

The moment she'll come through the door

He doesn't care how late

I want the sun to rise each morning

I want the stars to shine at night

I want the world to be at peace But most of all,

I want you to be all right

The music that has made us close

Has an unfamiliar sound

The melody still finds its way But the words won't come around

Your voice is the soul of any tune

Your eyes can change the tone

But the music never sounds the same When I'm singing all alone

I want the morning light to heal you

I want the stars to calm your night

I want this troubled world to find its peace

But most of all,

I want you to be all right

The garden waits beside the house For her gentle,

loving hand

The flowers bow their solemn heads As if they understand

The morning light still finds its way Across the waiting lawn

But nothing blooms the way it should When the gardener is gone

And soon your door will open wide And all who wait will

know

The songs will find their harmony

The garden starts to grow

The quiet rooms will breathe again The dark will turn to light

And every heart that waits for you Will know that you're all

right

I want the sun to rise each morning

I want the moon to shine its light

I want your world to be at peace

But most of all,

I want you to be all right

Be all

right (hummmm)
