You can sleep forever, but still you will be tired You can stay as cold as stone, but still you won't find peace With you I feel I'm the meek leading the blind With you I feel I'm just spending wasting time I've been waiting I'm still waiting I've been waiting I've been waiting I've been waiting I'm still waiting I'm with you (with you) It's always one step too far One step too far You can walk too far but still you won't be found You can look down on the world but still you won't find love You won't find love Only with mellow Are you thin enough to slide through Don't let nothin' ride you If the sun or the moon would give way to doubt They would immediately go out Only one swallow doesn't make a summer But you gotta start somewhere (maxi's bit) I've been waiting I'm still waiting I've been waiting I've been waiting I've been waiting I'm still waiting I'm with you (with you) It's always one step too far One step too far I've been waiting I'm still waiting I've been waiting I've been waiting I've been waiting I'm still waiting I'm with you (with you) It's always one step too far One step too far
