WAIT NO MORE

Sipping wine with angels
in this torch-lit tavern by the sea
What does it take
for what’s locked up inside to be free?
Fold me into you,
you know where I’m longing to be
When my ship sets sail
on that ocean of deep mystery

I want to wait no more

What does it take
for the heart to explode into stars?
One day we’ll wake
to remember how lovely we are
Lightning’s a kiss
that lands hot on the loins of the sky
Somthing uncoils
at the base of my spine and I cry

I want to:

Wait no more
Wait no more
Wait no more

—Bruce Cockburn, “Wait no More” (You’ve Never Seen Everything – 2001)
