Nick Andrew Staver - Temperance Lyrics

I've been waiting for the rain to stop
I've been waiting out the rain
I've been waiting for the storm to pass me by so I can cross the river

I've been waiting for the river to dry
So I can come back home
Crawl across the bed and fall asleep in the arms of temperance

So if you don't mind
Stop wasting my time
Change your ways and give me peace

I've been waiting for the tide to change
So I can see the mud below my feet
I count the waves crashing to the shore to remind me I still got a heartbeat

So if you don't mind
Stop wasting my time
Change your ways and give me peace
I'm in need, I'm need of a change
I'm in need, I'm need of a change
I'm in need, I'm need of a change

I've been waiting for the river to dry
So I can come back home
Crawl across the bed and fall asleep in the arms of temperance
