Waiting For My Real Life To Begin

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

And you say, 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 old footsteps, once again (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
