I'll Wait for You
Eternal Promise: Waiting for Love's Sweet Affirmation
Lyrics
Oh, I know we both are young
Expressing awareness that both individuals are young.
And must wait 'til school is through
Acknowledging the need to wait until school is over.
Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo
Use of vocalization "Oo-oo-oo" for emotional emphasis.
I'll wait for you
Commitment to waiting for the other person.
Oh, I tell my impatient heart
Advising the heart to be patient as there is no alternative.
There is nothing I can do
Expressing a sense of helplessness in the situation.
Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo
Repetition of emotional vocalization.
I'll wait for you
Reiteration of the commitment to wait.
There's one day I dream of
Describing a specific day that is dreamed of.
The day I can bring
Anticipation of being able to present a symbol of true love.
My token of true love
Referring to the anticipated gift, an engagement ring.
Your engagement ring
Affirmation of love.
I love you
Expression of love towards the other person.
So until the day I'll hear
Indicating a period of waiting until a positive response is received.
You will say, Yes, I do
Anticipating the affirmative response, "Yes, I do."
Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo
Repetition of emotional vocalization.
I'll wait for you
Reiteration of the commitment to wait.
There's one day I dream of
Reiteration of the dream of a specific day.
The day I can bring
Repeating the anticipation of presenting a symbol of true love.
My token of true love
Reiteration of the anticipated gift, an engagement ring.
Your engagement ring
Affirmation of love.
I love you
Expression of love towards the other person.
So until the day I'll hear
Reiteration of the waiting period until a positive response is received.
You will say, Yes, I do
Anticipating the affirmative response, "Yes, I do."
Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo
Repetition of emotional vocalization.
I'll wait for you
Reiteration of the commitment to wait.
