                 D#                     Gm
All through the night we drove and the wind caught her hair
        D#                         F
And we parked on the beach in the cool evening air
      D#                           F              Gm
Well sometimes it's better not to say anything at all
      D#                      Gm
Your body is an anchor, never asked to be free
              D#                      F
Just want to stay in the business of making you happy

Chorus:
    D#                     F                A#
Well I'm just waiting for you, waiting for you,
            Gm              D#maj7
waiting for you, waiting for you,
             F           D#     F A# Gm D# F D# Gm
waiting for you, waiting for you

A priest runs through the chapel, all the calendars are turning
A Jesus freak on the street says, "He is returning"
Well, sometimes a little bit of faith can go a long, long way
Your soul is my anchor, I never asked to be freed
Well, sleep now, sleep now, take as long as you need
'Cause I'm just waiting for you

Chorus

     A#   Gm
to return,
     D#   F
to return,
     D#maj7A#
