We'll Wait For You

ANDREA WAS A LITTLE GIRL
SHE WAS ONLY FIVE
OH HOW WE WONDER
ARE YOU STILL ALIVE


YOUR FATHER AND STEPMOM
SAID THAT YOU WERE DEAD
BUT SHOULD WE LISTEN TO OUR HEARTS
AND NOT OUR HEADS


MY SWEET LITTLE CHILD
WHERE DID YOU GO
THE SEARCH FOR YOU
IS AWFULLY SLOW


WE CAN'T GIVE UP
UNTIL WE KNOW YOUR FATE
ARE YOU HAPPY SOMEWHERE
OR ENTERED HEAVEN'S GATE


MOST NEVER KNEW YOU
EXCEPT FROM THE NEWS
MANY HAVE TRIED
TO JUST GET A VIEW


OF THE BIG BROWN EYES
BUT ONLY A FEW
AND GOD ONLY KNOWS
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU


WE LOVE YOU BROWN EYES
WE THINK OF YOU AND SIGH
AND CAN'T HELP BUT CRY
WE SEARCH FOR ANSWERS
AS TIME CREEPS BY

GOD WILL SHOW US
WHAT WE MUST DO
BUT UNTIL THEN
WE'LL WAIT FOR YOU
