Marillion

Marillion are a British rock band, formed in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England, in 1979. Their recorded studio output since 1982 is composed of seventeen albums generally regarded in two distinct eras, delineated by the departure of original frontman Fish in late 1988, and the subsequent arrival of replacement Steve Hogarth in early 1989. All four albums released with Fish were commercial successes, and the band released eleven Top 40 hits on the UK Singles Chart, including 1985's "Kayleigh", which reached No. 2 and became their biggest hit single. more »

I lie awake at night
Listening to you sleeping 
I hear the darkness breathe 
And the rain against the window 

After all this time 
Cynical and jaded 
All the stones are diamonds 
All the blues are faded 

Everything I've been through 
All I've seen and heard 
Spend so much of my life 
In the spiritual third world 
But you came and brought the rain here

Something waiting to happen 
Something learning to fly 
We can talk without talking 
From inside to inside
I have waited to feel this 
For the whole of my life 

We took ourselves apart 
We talked about our faces 
You said you didn't like yours 
I said I disagree

I keep the pieces separate 
I clutch them in my coat 
A jigsaw of an angel 
I can do when I feel low 

From emptiness and dryness 
The famine of our days 
I watch the heavens open 
Wash it all away 
You came and brought the rain here 

Something waiting to happen 
Something learning to fly 
On the edge of exploding
Something wild and alive 
Something waiting to happen 
Any time that you like 
I have waited to feel this 
For the whole of my life
