Lyrics
Should I leave this world
Contemplating leaving the world
Before you do
Referencing someone else's departure
Travel to heaven
Imagining traveling to heaven
Leaving you behind
Concern about leaving a loved one behind
What would I do
Expressing uncertainty about the future
But I think I'll just sit here and bide my time
Choosing to wait patiently
And wait for you to arrive
Anticipating the arrival of a significant person
I think I'll just sit here and bide my time
Reiterating the decision to wait patiently
Enjoy what's left of you and I
Planning to enjoy the remaining time together
I may have met kings and queens of the past
Reflecting on meeting historical figures
Listened to the greats of the music and the arts
Appreciating great figures in music and arts
Nothing can compare to you my dear
Stating that the loved one surpasses all
Darling I'll bide my time and wait for you
Committing to waiting for the loved one
Two lost souls
Describing the couple as lost souls
Who met
Recalling the meeting of the two souls
On a tropical island
Setting the scene of the first encounter
When eyes first met
Highlighting the significance of eye contact
Eternity started
Indicating the beginning of eternity
And I can't forget
Expressing the unforgettable nature of the experience
Any of it
Emphasizing the lasting impact of the encounter
But I think I'll just sit here and bide my time
Repeating the decision to wait patiently
And wait for you to arrive
Reiterating the anticipation of the loved one's arrival
I think I'll just sit here and bide my time
Repeating the decision to wait patiently
Enjoy what's left of you and I
Reaffirming the intention to enjoy remaining time
I may have met kings and queens of the past
Recalling encounters with historical figures
Listened to the greats of the music and the arts
Remembering appreciation for music and arts figures
Nothing can compare to you my dear
Affirming the unmatched value of the loved one
Darling I'll bide my time and wait for you
Repeating commitment to waiting for the loved one
And as I stand
Describing standing before a gate
Before the gate
Expressing the anticipation and tension
I'll try my best to hold my breath
Struggling to hold breath while waiting
I know in time when you will rest
Anticipating the loved one's eventual rest
You'll hold my hand
Imagining holding hands during the afterlife
Walk in with me
Envisioning a shared journey in the afterlife
And As I stand
Repeating the description of standing before a gate
Before the Gate
Reiterating the struggle to hold breath
I'll try my best to hold my breath
Repeating the anticipation of the loved one's rest
I know in time when you will rest
Repeating the imagery of holding hands in the afterlife
You'll hold my hand
Reiterating the description of standing before a gate
Walk in with me
Reaffirming the struggle to hold breath while waiting
I may have met kings and queens of the past
Recalling encounters with historical figures
Listened to the greats of the music and the arts
Remembering appreciation for music and arts figures
Nothing can compare to you my dear
Affirming the unmatched value of the loved one
Darling I'll bide my time and wait for you
Repeating commitment to waiting for the loved one
I may have watched all the famous stars
Recalling watching famous stars
Marilyn, Betty and Joan of Arc
Naming specific historical figures
Nothing can compare to you my dear
Affirming the unmatched value of the loved one
Darling I'll bide my time and wait for you
Repeating commitment to waiting for the loved one
