Analysis of Till Kingdom Come
Still my Heart
And Hold My Tongue
I feel my Time
This Time has Come
Let me In
Unlock the Door
I've never felt ...
Like this Before
Hold my Hand
Inside your Hands
I need Someone
Who Understands
I need Someone
Someone who Hears
For you I've waited …
All these Years
In your Tears
And in your Blood
In your Fire
And in your Flood
I hear you Laugh
And heard you Sing
I would not change . . .
A single Thing
For you I'd Wait
Till kingdom Comes
Until My day
My day has Come
Just say you'll Come
And set me Free
You say you'll Wait
You'll wait for Me
The wheels just keep on Turning
The drummer begins to Drum
But I know which way I'm Going
And I know where I come From
