By and by

I've been on the edge of my chair
Waiting for circumstance to be kind
All this time I've been waiting
Wishing wishes
Now I'm jaded sitting here
On the edge of my chair

All the while
Life continued without me
The world went by and by

My mind feels like an empty room
I'm the only one inside and my thoughts are cruel
Waiting has become my prison
I feel unbearably distant
Sitting here on the edge of my chair

The world went by and by
The world went by and by
All the while life continued without me
The world went by and by
