      annabelle and carolanne I've heard it for years and I still don't know what it's about. There's a part about a lazy eye but it's at most part of the song but what it's about.

    I've been waiting for this moment all my life
    But it's not quite right
    And this real
    It's impossible if possible
    At whose blind word
    So clear but so unheard
    I've been waiting
    I've been waiting for this silence all night long
    It's just a matter of time
    To appear sad
    With the same old decent lazy eye
    Fixed to rest on you
    Aim free and so untrue
    Everyone's so intimately rearranged
    Everyone's so focused clearly with such shine
    Everyone's so intimately rearranged
    Everyone's so focused clearly with such shine
    Lost and loaded
    Still the same old decent lazy eye
    Straight through your gaze
    That's why I said I relate
    I said we relate
    It's so fun to relate
    It's the room, the sun, and the sky
    The room, the sun, and the sky
    I've been waiting
    I've been waiting for this moment

    I love this for alot of reasons.... but especially because when you see a truly talented musician playing guitar... you know how you think you can play a 'simple' guitar progression, and then you try, and then you see someone like this who clocks in a cannon voice..... then you realize why he's still at it all these years later and you're playing to your dog

    When I noticed it was acoustic I didn’t think it would work but I was very wrong!! That is a great version of a great song.

    For the longest time, I thought that the singer was a girl based on his voice. High school me wasn't very observant.

      I used to listen to them in middle school, maybe 5th grade. My teacher showed me them and I totally thought the singer was a little boy

      +Aidiera I legit thought it was a woman for the longest time, and my brain still tells me it is a woman's voice to this day, but I mean... the proof is there, I guess...

    Esta canción es perfecta es increíble la frecuencia de voz que maneja este tipo 2018 y aun la sigo escuchando y la repito.

    I was so hoping he'd do the loud bit and not mute it down for the acoustic version. Did not disappoint.
    I remember when I heard this song for the first time and its appeal had not changed. It's singular - not derivative at all... It's simple but not pedestrian... I sound like a pretentious douche but there's just something different about it that makes me never ever switch the station when i hear it

    A flawless performance! To sing that well and kill it on the guitar is not easy.
