In a flash of sleep
The dreamin' broke my heart
There were no borderlines
Keepin' us apart
But then I wake up
To the sound of cryin' kids
No mothers here to hold
We can only wish
So I'll sing you a song
To show you my mind
It's all that I can do
To help us pass the time

One by one
We will come, you make me wait
Countin' my mistakes
One by one
We will come, you make me wait
At the gates
To see your face again

Walked a thousand miles
To this promise land
But little did we know
We were already there
How can I find sleep
When they won't turn off the light
My stomach's rumblin'
No more dreams tonight
I'll sing you a song
'Cause our soul feel down
The hardest to do
Is make a joyful sound

One by one
We will come, you make me wait
Countin' my mistakes
One by one (One by one)
We will come, you make me wait
At the gates
To see your face again

Ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh

One by one
We will come
One by one
One by one, you make me wait (One by one)
(We will come)
I'm countin' my mistakes
One by one (One by one)
We will come, you make me wait
You make me wait
Countin' my mistakes
