Lyrics and translation

Original

I thought I caught a glimpse when I was a child.

A mother's embrace, a father's pride.

I started thinking I might never find you.

I looked through the hands of time.

I've climbed and I have mined.

I dug a hole in the center of the world.

How long have I been waiting for you?

All of my lifetime, all of my lifetime.

How long have I been waiting for you?

I could've swore that I saw you once in some drunken state.

The bottom of a glass, a memory from the past.

I close my eyes and I imagine you there.

I've chased every rumor about you from room to room to

Timbuktu.

And I've stood in every hallway, in every house.

How long have I been waiting for you?

All of my lifetime, all of my lifetime.

How long have I been waiting for you?

How long have I been waiting for you?

More than a lifetime, are you my lifeline?

How long have I been waiting for you?

It's every night in every dream, you're everywhere in everything.

It's every night in every dream, you're everywhere in everything.

How long have I been waiting for you?

All of my lifetime, all of my lifetime.

How long have I been waiting for you?

More than a lifetime, are you my lifeline?

How long have I been waiting for you?

All of my lifetime, all of my lifetime.

How long have I been waiting for you?

More than a lifetime, are you my lifeline?

How long have I been waiting for you?
