How Long Must I Wait For You
Yearning Journeys: A Melodic Quest for Love
Lyrics
You told me you would me at the station gate
You promised to meet me at the station gate for our honeymoon trip.
For our honeymoon excursion
Confirmation of plans for a honeymoon excursion.
You told me you would me at the station gate
Reiteration of the promise to meet at the station gate.
But I got a different version
Contradiction or a change in plans.
Train number one is gone
Train number one has departed.
Train number two is gone
Train number two has departed.
Train number three is been gone
Train number three has already left.
How long must I wait for you?
Expressing impatience and questioning the delay in meeting.
Train number four is gone
Train number four has left.
Train number five is gone
Train number five has departed.
Train number six is been gone
Train number six has already left.
How long must I wait for you?
Reiteration of impatience and the waiting period.
I got my tickets and a reservation set for two
Preparation with tickets and reservations for a couple.
Luggage waiting on the track
Luggage is ready on the track for the journey.
But I got no use for reservations without you
Expressing the uselessness of reservations without the partner.
I got to give the tickets back
Returning tickets due to the absence of the partner.
Cause train number one is back
Train number one has returned.
Train number two is back
Train number two has returned.
Train number three is been back
Train number three has come back.
How long must I wait for you?
Questioning the continued wait for the partner.
You told me you would me at the station gate
Reiteration of the promise for the honeymoon trip.
For our honeymoon excursion
Confirmation of plans for a honeymoon excursion.
You told me you would me at the station gate
Reiteration of the promise to meet at the station gate.
But I got a different version
Contradiction or a change in plans.
Train number one is gone
Train number one has departed.
Train number two is gone
Train number two has departed.
Train number three is been gone
Train number three has already left.
How long must I wait for you?
Expressing impatience and questioning the delay in meeting.
Train number four is gone
Train number four has left.
Train number five is gone
Train number five has departed.
Train number six is been gone
Train number six has already left.
How long must I wait for you?
Reiteration of impatience and the waiting period.
I got the tickets and a reservation set for two
Preparation with tickets and reservations for a couple.
Luggage waiting on the track
Luggage is ready on the track for the journey.
But I got no use for reservations without you
Expressing the uselessness of reservations without the partner.

Returning tickets due to the absence of the partner.
Cause train number one is back
Train number one has returned.
Train number two is back
Train number two has returned.
Train number three is been back
Train number three has come back.
How long must I wait for you?
Questioning the continued wait for the partner.
How long, baby
Repetition of the question expressing the longing for the partner.
How long, baby
-How long, how long
Repetition of the question expressing the prolonged wait.
How long must I wait for you?
Final questioning of the extended waiting period for the partner.
