THE WAIT

LONGING TO HOLD YOU, WANTING YOUR TOUCH
CRYING TO SLEEP CAUSE I LOVE YOU SO MUCH

THE MILES BETWEEN US, THE OTHER THINGS TOO
COULD NEVER KEEP ME AWAY FROM YOU

I MADE YOU A PROMISE, THAT YOU WILL BE MINE
TO SAY THE WAIT ISN'T PAINFUL, WOULD MEAN I AM LYING

BUT I'LL WAIT FOR YOU, AS LONG AS IT TAKES
SOMEDAY YOU WILL BE THERE, WHEN I AWAKE

FOR NOW I TAKE COMFORT KNOWING YOU CARE
AND LOOK AT YOUR PICTURE WITH A LOVING STARE

AWAITING THE DAY WHEN WE WILL EMBRACE
AND IN MY HANDS, I WILL CRADLE YOUR FACE

GENTLY I'LL KISS YOU AND LOOK INTO YOUR EYES
YOU'LL SEE INTO MY HEART AND WILL REALIZE

WHAT ONCE WAS LOST HAS COME BACK TO YOU
READY TO START A LIFE ANEW

I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER, THIS PROMISE I'LL KEEP
I'LL SMILE WHEN YOU'RE HAPPY, DRY YOUR EYES WHEN YOU WEEP

WE WILL WALK SIDE BY SIDE, TAKE THE BAD AND THE GOOD
THE LOVE'S ALWAYS BEEN THERE, THAT IS UNDERSTOOD

WHEN WE ARE FINALLY TOGETHER, NO LONGER APART
WE WILL BASK IN THE LOVE OF OUR BEATING HEARTS
