I'll Wait
Endless Patience: A Heart's Vigil for Love's Return
Lyrics
You told me that you had a plan
You were informed about a plan
But you never went through with it
The plan was not executed
How can you just leave it like that
Questioning the abrupt abandonment
Did I not deserve it
Expressing doubt about deserving such treatment
I'll leave the door unlocked as I sleep
Leaving the door open, anticipating a return
Thinking maybe you'll come back to me
Hoping for a reunion while sleeping
Six years isn't long enough
Six years feels insufficient, misery persists
And it won't be as long as this misery
Emphasizing the prolonged suffering
And I'm hoping that we find a way
Expressing hope for a resolution
To make our way back to it
Desiring to find a way back to the relationship
And I'll wait
Commitment to waiting
For that day
Waiting for the day of reconciliation
And I'll wait for as long as it will take
Commitment to waiting regardless of the time it takes
You said take the dog on a walk on every nice day
Recalling advice about daily activities
But there hasn't been any since you left
No pleasant days since the departure
You said spend time with your friends
Desiring the company of the departed
But the only one I want to see is you
Preference for the absent partner over friends
And I don't wanna get out of bed in the morning
Reluctance to face the day without the partner
But life, it doesn't stop moving
Acknowledging life's continual progression
My mom said why don't you come home
Mother's suggestion to return home
But without you there is none
Home lacks significance without the partner
And I'm hoping that we find way
Reiterating hope for a resolution
To make our way back to it
Desiring a return to the relationship
And I'll wait
Reaffirmation of waiting
For that day
Waiting for the anticipated day
And I'll wait for as long as it will take
Commitment to waiting, regardless of time
I'll wait for as long as it will take
Repetition of commitment to waiting
And I'll wait
Continued commitment to waiting
I'll wait
Reiteration of the intention to wait
I'll wait
Final repetition of the commitment to wait
