Waitin' on the Day
Yearning for Tomorrow: John Mayer's Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
Waiting on a day
Anticipation for a future day or moment
Where my thoughts are my own
Desire for personal autonomy in thoughts
When this house is my home
Yearning for a place to truly call home
And plans are made
Hope for structured and realized plans
When you'll be there for me baby
Expectation of support and presence from a loved one
When you'll love me all the way
Desire for full and genuine love
When you take my side in every little firefight
Seeking support in every conflict, no matter how small
When you hang your things and stay
Longing for commitment and permanence in a relationship
I'm waiting on a day
Patiently awaiting a positive change or outcome
When my life on the run
Reflecting on a life filled with constant movement
Reaches out in the sun
Yearning for a moment of tranquility and self-expression
And shows my age
Acceptance and acknowledgment of one's age
I'm waiting on a day
Reiteration of waiting for a positive future
When that voice comes to sing
Hope for a reassuring inner voice
It's not wrong what you did
Validation for past actions, even if perceived as wrong
For just a kiss
Recognition of the significance of a simple gesture (a kiss)
When you'll be there for me baby
Continued desire for emotional support and presence
When you'll love me all the way
Seeking unconditional love
When you take my side in every little firefight
Expectation of support in all challenges
When you hang your things and stay
Longing for a committed and lasting relationship
I'm waiting on a day
Patience in awaiting positive changes in life
Waiting on a day
Reiteration of anticipation for a specific day
When these words are in stone
Desire for lasting impact and permanence
When the kids are out grown
Anticipation for the children to be grown and independent
And we go dancing
Imagining joyful and carefree moments like dancing
Oh can you do it baby?
Questioning the ability of a loved one to fulfill desires
Can you love me all the way?
Asking for complete and unwavering love
Will you tie me tight in little strands of paradise?
Desiring an intimate and secure connection
Will you walk with me before the morning fades?
Asking for companionship throughout the challenges of life
I'm waiting in a day
Continued anticipation for a positive future
