In The Mean Time

Music and lyrics by John Reese

I have a sense that I'm waiting, a feeling that maybe you've known
A sense of something in me that you've seen there all along
You may even be waiting yourself, sitting here biding time
Waiting on a wish or a dream, a season sublime

And In The Mean Time, we say that we're just fine
We just sit here waiting, watching the world, watching the world go by
We're just watching the world go by
In The Mean Time
In The Mean Time

Yeah but we're alright, yeah we're okay
Yeah we're alright, in time we will find our way
In time we will find our way

I know we all have a vision inside of a perfectness all our own
A picture of a oneness of someone chosen before we're born
And we think if we're patient, our dreams will just unfold
So we just sit here waiting, seemingly not alone

And In The Mean Time, say that we're just fine
We just sit here waiting, watching the world, watching the world go by
We're just watching the world go by
In The Mean Time

A suddenly noticed emotion, drifting thought of something you said
The thought that maybe us waiting together's what keeps us from moving ahead
Ah but that, that can't be it, there's safety in numbers it's said
Why wait alone for the right one, I'll just wait here with you instead

In The Mean Time
