We've been waiting so long
Cirque du Soleil
[Verse 1]
Where in this world do we belong?
Tell me, when will the light shine on us?
Why did we come this far tonight?
And will anyone be here for us?
[Verse 2]
Where is the truth? Why must she hide?
Is there only one way to her heart?
When did this start? When will it end?
We've been waiting for so long.
[Refrain]
Oh! Time will leave us behind,
don't fear her,do be brave.
You must hold your head up high.
There's not reason to stop,
to worry, to tremble,
or to think of turning back.
[Bridge - Spoken]
Truth and Beauty might well be waiting,
beyond our vision of things.
Turn away from the light.
Look toward the shadows.
Learn from the shadows.
[Verse 3]
Where are we now? Why must we leave?
Can't we sleep? Can't we dream forever?
Feel like the wind can chill the soul.
Must we face her all alone?
[Refrain]
Oh! No matter how long
we must journey, we will,
every night and every day.
Since the shadows will spare,
their secrets, their story,
we must gently make our way.
[Refrain]
Time will leave us behind,
don't fear her,do be brave.
You must hold your head up high.
There's not reason to stop,
to worry, to tremble,
we must gently make our way.
