lyrics

One foggy shoreline morning
A lifetime long ago
Was that precious moment
You met your fated lover

You built a house to show her
Your love could last as long
You would never part
In that cottage built for two

And you waited
Time will always take the pain away
And you wanted
Fate will always have to have her way
And you waited
You are still waiting
Today

You prayed with half a heart
How could you trust God?
When he took your love away
What was left for you to do?

You lived on through your grief
You could not leave her grave
You watched your town grow old
From that cottage built for two

And you waited
Time will always take the pain away
And you wanted
Fate will always have to have her way
And you waited
You are still waiting
Today

When they buried you
You looked on from afar
Be it Hell or Heaven
Her soul belonged with you

From forest to the shoreline
From Willapa to Pacific
You haunt this town forever
From that cottage built for two

And you waited
Time will always take the pain away
And you wanted
Fate will always have to have her way
And you waited
You are still waiting
Today
