Any minute now my ship is coming in.
I'll keep checking the horizon,
And I'll stand on the bow
And feel the waves come crashing
Come crashing down, down, down on me.

And you said,"Be still, my love
Open up your heart
Let the light shine in."
Don't you understand?
I already have a plan
I'm waiting for my real life to begin.

When I awoke today suddenly nothing happened...
But in my dreams I slew the dragon.
And down this beaten path
And up this cobbled lane
I'm walking in my own footsteps once again.

And you say,"Just be here now,
Forget about the past
Your mask is wearing thin."
Let me throw one more dice
I know that I can win.
I'm waiting for my real life to begin.
