When Will I Know



Will there be a sign telling me,
Or will it be something I can see...
When will I know?
Will there be whispers in the wind,
Will there be light at the end...
At the end of the rainbow as they say,
A place for me to be able to go all the way...
What I mean by going all the way,
Is that should I leave or should I stay...
Stay here to find out what am I to receive,
From the man up above who I believe...
Believe that he will bless me unconditionally,
And the only way I will know that is for me to wait and see...
Again, when will I know?
I guess I have to wait and see...
