All we are is an aching that can barely be filled
But if you could just hold me for a moment I'd be thrilled
And you tell him you love him but you don't really know
But it seems like the perfect thing to say before you go

Did the doctor just speak then? All you heard was a whirl
Sounded like, "Congratulations sir, it is a girl"
And Belfast continues, never doubted it wouldn't
It's climbed off the canvas more than any other city could've

I've waited for your love so long dear
I've waited for your love so long

You're fearless, I hear this
And I'll be here falling in love with the sound of your voice
You're golden, stop holding
Onto the memories that rise from the depths of the noise

Your father was shouting 'cause your name caught the wind
And you ran home through rain and muddy streets to get to him
No I don't have an answer, no I don't understand
But I'll still be rooting for you holding out my hand

I've waited for your love so long dear
I've waited for your love so long

You're fearless, I hear this
And I'll be here falling in love with the sound of your voice
You're golden, stop holding
Onto the memories that rise from the depths of the noise

This is the sound of your voice
It's the way home to everything
This is the sound of your voice
It's the way home to everything
This is the sound of your voice
It's the way home to everything
