Waiting on You
Eternal Wait: Embracing Change and Dreams in Étienne Fletcher's Melody
Lyrics
Wake up in the morning
Expressing the start of a new day.
There's something strange
Sensing something unusual or different.
Everything around you is all rearranged
Observing a significant change in the surroundings.
I've been waiting,
Implying a period of anticipation or expectation.
Waiting on you
Continuing to wait for someone or something.
Go at it again through different eyes
Approaching situations with a fresh perspective.
Relive it through the eyes of a passer by
Reliving experiences from an outsider's viewpoint.
Waiting to see you
Expressing eagerness or anticipation to encounter someone.
See it through
Encouraging seeing things through until completion.
Well you walk in the room
Describing a specific moment of entering a room.
At a quarter past nine
Providing a time reference for the entrance.
Dreamin' like you do
Indicating daydreaming or fantasizing.
Baby all of the time
Suggesting consistent dreaming throughout the day.
Oh well I feel it coming
Sensing a forthcoming change or event.
Look I know its true
Acknowledging the truth of a situation.
I feel it all changing
Feeling a comprehensive transformation.
Don't you ?
Prompting the listener to validate the change.
I know you like to try some of the time
Recognizing a tendency to experiment or experience.
Reaching out to touch it just one last time
Expressing a desire to touch or feel something one last time.
I know you do
Confirming the knowledge of this inclination.
Well you're comin' up to me
Referring to someone approaching.
Something out of movies
Comparing the situation to a cinematic experience.
I've been wasting away
Indicating a period of unproductive time.
I've been wasted,
Reiterating the sense of wasting time.
Wasted on you
Emphasizing the extent of wasting time on a specific person or thing.
Well you walk in the room like a loaded gun
Depicting the entrance of someone with a potentially powerful impact.
Movin' like you do always on the run
Describing a dynamic and constantly moving individual.
Well I feel it comin'
Sensing a forthcoming change similar to earlier lines.
Look I know it's true
Reiterating the acknowledgment of an impending change.
I feel it all changing don't you ?
Asking the listener to recognize and validate the evolving situation.
Wake up
Repeating the morning wake-up motif.
There's only so much more that I can take
Expressing a sense of reaching a limit or threshold.
What more is there to say
Conveying a struggle to find more words or explanations.
I just don't want to wish these days away
Expressing a desire to appreciate the present instead of wishing for the future.
There's only so much time left
Highlighting the scarcity of time.
There's only so much time left
Reiterating the limited time available.
