Will He Be Waiting
Longing Roads: A Journey Back to Love with Dolly Parton
Lyrics
I can still see that lonesome road stretched out before me
I have a vivid memory of the desolate road that lies ahead of me.
The road that left me out of his love
This road represents the path that led me away from his love.
I can still feel the tears he cried on my shoulder the day that I told him goodbye
I still feel the sadness he expressed on my shoulder when I said goodbye.
I never should have left him never should have gone oh what a crazy fool I've been
I regret leaving him; it was a foolish decision, and I acknowledge my mistake.
Will he be waiting for me he will be won't he and will he take me back again
I am contemplating if he will wait for me and if he will accept me back.
Shadows from the streets shade the path that I am walking
Shadows from the streets symbolically cover the path I'm walking, suggesting challenges.
As I make my way back up that winding road again
I am retracing the winding road back to him.
And the smell of my tomorrow fills the air with sweet perfume
The scent of my future surrounds me as I approach the end of my journey.
My heart beats faster as I'm near my journey're end
My heartbeat quickens as I near the conclusion of my journey.
I wonder if he's missed me I wonder if he wants me I wonder does he love me still
I am uncertain if he has missed me, wants me, or still loves me.
Will he be waiting for me he will be won't he oh how I hope he will
I express my hope that he will be waiting for me.
He will be waiting for me he will be won't he
Reiteration of the anticipation that he will be waiting for my return.
How could it be his love for me has faded and has died
I question how his love for me could have faded and died.
He will be waiting for me he will be won't he
Repetition of the expectation that he will be waiting for me.
Oh will I find that this time I'll be the one to cry
I contemplate the possibility of being the one to experience heartbreak this time.
Will he be waiting for me
Reiteration of the question about whether he will be waiting for me.
