I can rest again, now that the sky is grey
It hasn't rained here since May

I tried to move a mountain
I'm waitin' for it to fall
I'm starin' out the window
Waitin' for you to call
You won't

I can breathe again, now that they've all gone home
It's been a long time since I've been alone

I tried to start a fire
I'm waitin' for it to burn
My luck has all been bad
I'm waitin' for it to turn
It won't

You can't see forever unless it's far behind
If you close your eyes too long
You might one day go blind

I tried to build a castle
I think it's made of sand
I'm flyin' around in circles
Lookin' for a place to land
But I won't

I think I'll stay awhile now that the winter's come
It's been a long time since you've been gone

I tried to move a mountain
I'm waitin' for it to fall
I'm starin' out the window
Waitin' for you to call
You won't
