Maybe Later

You said "hey, it's about to happen, it could be right now or maybe later" I never knew just what you meant forgive me, I've already been here too long and my faith is all used up You said "don't go, wait a little longer, this shroud is slipping and I'm about to discover... where the treasure is hidden" I never knew just what you meant I swept the cobwebs from the room the hands on the clock moving backward You wonder where the time has gone your time is now and you're ready to begin feel the depth of empty shadow breathe the freshness of mountain air the time has come but I'm not there
