Watching and Waiting lyrics

Watching and waiting

For a friend to play with

Why have I been alone so long

Mole he is burrowing his way to the sunlight

He knows there's someone there so strong

Cos here there's lots of room for doing

The thing you've always been denied

Look and gather all you want to

There's no one here to stop you trying

Soon you will see me

Cos I'll be all around you

But where I come from I can't tell

But don't be alarmed by my fields and my forests

They're here for only you to share

Cos here there's lots of room for doing

The things you've always been denied

So look and gather all you want to

There's no one here to stop you trying

Watching and waiting

For someone to understand me

I hope it won't be very long
