Nicole Atkins - We Wait Too Long Lyrics

Stranger in the rain outside my glass
Every night you pass a vision in my mind
Your hand reaches out for the taking
Danger tantalizing me with somebody like you
Can be so heartbreaking
You need to bear, all the birds are singing out to please take care

[Chorus]
We wait too long for the moment to be right
We wait too long for the perfect danger to enlighten
Wait too long

I regret to say that it's so sad
Never got around to thinks that we imagine that we try
Waiting for a message that could draw near
That could dam the tears that dwell up the twinkling of an eye

We wait too long for the moment to be right
We wait too long for the perfect danger to enlighten
Wait too long

In doughnut common prayers so contrived
The ugly rumors have me gathered, yeah,
Things are still polite
But I will soon find something wrong for you to find in me
I will bend the melody until it bleeds

We wait too long for the moment to be right
We wait too long for the perfect danger to enlight
Wait too long
