I've Waited So Long
Eternal Yearning: A Melodic Quest for Love's Embrace
Lyrics
(So long, I've waited so long,
Expressing a sense of longing and waiting for a significant period.
So long, I've waited so long)
Reiteration of the prolonged wait, emphasizing the passing of time.
I've waited so long, a lifetime it seems
Highlighting the extended duration, as if a lifetime, for the anticipated event or person.
For someone to step right out of my dreams
Desiring someone special to emerge from dreams into reality.
All that an angel could be
Describing the ideal person as angelic and exclusively meant for the speaker.
And meant for only me.
Emphasizing the exclusivity of the awaited person.
Play me a tune, haunting and blue
Requesting a musical expression that is both haunting and melancholic.
Tell me of dreams that never come true
Yearning to hear about dreams, even if they are unfulfilled.
Sing me a lonely song
Longing for a sad and poignant song until the awaited person arrives.
Till she comes along
Expressing hope for the arrival of the awaited person.
It will be so wonderful
Anticipating a wonderful experience when love finally comes.
When love comes my way
Envisioning an end to loneliness when love enters the speaker's life.
No more lonely hours
Imagining the fading away of lonely hours with the advent of love.
They'll just fade away
Continuing the theme of loneliness dissipating in the presence of love.
Some day we'll meet, somewhere I know
Projecting a future meeting with the awaited person, expressing optimism.
We'll kiss and say "I love you so"
Envisioning a romantic encounter with expressions of love.
Darling, surely I can't be so wrong
Questioning the possibility of being wrong in anticipating love after a long wait.
For I've waited, yes I've waited
Reaffirming the extended duration of waiting.
So very long
Stressing the prolonged period of anticipation.
So long, my darling
Bidding farewell to the long wait and welcoming the awaited person.
So long, my darling, darling
Repeating the farewell, perhaps with a sense of relief or joy.
