about

A young man with locked in syndrome has fallen in love with his therapist...

lyrics

Waiting for someone to come to come and see me
Someone to talk to, for someone to be with
Waiting on someone like you waiting to be found out
To have second thoughts and cast a shadow of doubt
Anyone will do anyone I’d just rather it were you

I’ve lived here in this room for most of my life
I lie in my bed look out of the window it’s a beautiful night
Nurses come and they go there’s a full moon high in the sky
I’m sat in a chair by the door people are walking on by
Anyone will do anyone but I’d rather it was you

I caught you looking at me in a most peculiar way
So what are you thinking if I blink will you run away
If you play your cards right you could end up a star
Unlocking the mystery your very own place in history well
Anyone will do anyone I just hope it will be you

Can’t move cant speak but I can feel your breath upon my cheek
When you kiss me goodnight at the end of the day
Is there nothing more you that you wanted to say?

I’ve been waiting for someone like you sit up and notice me
You have every permission to set my heart free

Cause anyone will do
Anyone but I’d rather it was you
Anyone will do anyone but I hope that it is you
