Waiting in The Wings
Jimmy was a shadow, the youngest of three boys How he longed to feel the light Jimmy's older brothers sure could make some noise So he became the quiet type But deep inside, he had some powerful dreams He'd think about them, then he'd smile And he was gone, gone to somewhere far beyond Where he was strong, strong, shining in the sun They say that someday the meekest heart will sing There was Jimmy waiting in the wings Susie was a waitress, morning, noon and night But she never did complain Jimmy's stopped for lunch there, at least a thousand times But one Monday, something changed She leaned across him with some chocolate pie Then, he looked into her eyes And he was gone, gone to somewhere far beyond His heart beat strong, strong, he knew she was the one They say that someday the meekest heart will sing Love found Jimmy waiting in the wings And when he held her for the very first time He found the one thing he'd been missing all his life And they were gone, gone to somewhere far beyond Their love was strong, strong, two hearts beat as one He stood beside her and she put on his ring And when she smiled how his heart did sing They say that someday the meekest heart will sing So, remember if you're waiting in the wings
