We Used To Wait by The Arcade Fire

I used to write
I used to write letters I used to sign my name
I (1)________ to sleep at night
Before the (2)________________ lights settled deep in my brain
But by the (3)________ we met
By the time we met the times had already changed

So I never wrote a letter
I (4)__________ (5)________ my true heart I never wrote it down
So when the lights cut out
I was left standing in the wilderness downtown
Now our lives are (6)________________ fast
Now our lives are changing fast
Hope that something (7)________ can last
Hope that (8)__________________ pure can last
It seems strange
How we used to wait for letters to arrive
But what's stranger still
Is how something so small can (9)________ you alive
We used to wait
We (10)________ to waste (11)__________ just walking around
We used to wait
All those (12)____________ lives in the (13)____________________ downtown

(Oooo) we used to wait
(Oooo) we used to wait
(Oooo) we (14)________ to wait
Sometimes it never came
(Oooo we (15)________ to wait)
Sometimes it never came
(Oooo we (16)________ to wait)
Still moving through the pain
(Oooooo)
I'm gonna (17)__________ a letter to my true love
I'm gonna sign my name
Like a patient on a table
I wanna walk again (18)__________ move through the pain

Now our lives are changing fast
Now our lives are (19)________________ fast
Hope that something (20)________ can last
Hope that something pure can last
(Oooo) we used to wait
(Oooo) we used to wait
(Oooo) we used to wait
Sometimes it never came
(Oooo we used to wait)
Sometimes it never came
(Oooo we (21)________ to wait)
Still (22)____________ (23)______________ the pain
(Oooooo)
We used to wait
We used to wait
We used to wait

We used to wait for it
We used to (24)________ for it
Now we're screaming sing the chorus again
We (25)________ to wait for it
We used to wait for it
Now we're screaming sing the chorus again
I used to wait for it
I (26)________ to wait for it
Hear my voice screaming sing the chorus again

Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
