Minus} - Gondolier

Copied!edit Lyrics

I don’t mind if you go
It’s been a good while
And stasis only drags you down
And I won’t mind if you come back around
I will wait for you
I will leave the light on

And get you on your own

I don’t mind if you say
You’ve had enough of that
At least you’re coming out of it
And I won’t mind if you’re flailing around
I will wait for you
I will leave the light on

To get you on your own

There’s a cold wind blowing through your hair ( down the track )
When you take initial steps anywhere ( don’t look back )
No one’s brushing rocks toward the sides
Without them, the path is too open wide

So let’s raise a glass to when you’ve gone
And hope that you’ve got what you need to get on
Just remember when you’rе wrestling with doubt
That the light will nevеr die out
In the distance we will see
You’re holding onto me
But the story still unfolds

‘Cuz I’ve journeyed through the years
To meet the gondolier
I hope you can let go

I was waiting there for you
Even though I could not follow
And you’ll know just what to do
Even when I cannot follow
