I'll Be Waiting Lyrics - Pj Harvey

They swept across the land 

They did not leave a thing 

They did not leave a person 

A stone or a tree 

They did not leave anything 

They did not leave anything 

All it's left is sand 

All it's left is sand 

I remember, father 

I remember him 

Every minute I remember 

Every moment 

Now I hate everyone 

Now I hate everyone 

Before, I used to love 

Before, I used to love 

[Chorus] 

One day, thorns shall grow 

One day, thorns shall grow 

From their graves 

When they return 

Throns will grow 

Over their graves 

I will be waiting 

[Verse 2] 

And when they return 

I will be waiting 

I will not leave a person 

Standing 

I will not leave anything 

I will not leave anything 

All I'll leave is sand 

All I'll leave is sand 

[Chorus] 

And then thorns shall grow 

And then thorns shall grow 

From their graves 

When they return 

Throns shall grow 

Over their graves 

I will be waiting 

When they return 

Throns shall grow 

Over their graves 

I will be waiting
