Oh city shine on tomorrow  For today I feel rain  There is a decent moon  Now I lay me down in the light    My man's afraid, no communication  I'm sure life in my arms ain't been free  Is it a sacrifice to love me now  Are you alright?    Will you take my hand so I'm not alone  You're the road I need to lead me home baby...forever  Will you be my friend, will you walk with me  Can we wash away the history that clouds our love  What came before surely won't be  There's a clean rain fallin' over me    I know I cried after what you told me  You said you're not sure where this love is going  Why would you hesitate if you really love me now  Are you alright?    Will you take my hand, you're the road I need to lead me home...forever  Will you be my friend, will you walk with me  Can we wash away the history that clouds our love  What came before surely won't be    Hey we've been running too long, let's settle down  Gotta keep our head above water  Take a look around  How long will you wait for me  How long will you wait for me    (Repeat Chorus)
