Lyrics

Wait for a sign my little one

Expressing anticipation, advising patience for a signal or indication.

Don't let your heart turn black

Cautioning against a negative transformation of emotions or attitude.

There's a patience that we must learn

Highlighting the importance of learning patience in relationships.

Oh don't ya know I'm coming back

Assuring a return while acknowledging the separation.


And I don't care what your friends are saying

Disregarding the opinions of the listener's friends.

And I don't care what they're told

Emphasizing indifference to external influences and rumors.

And I know there's more to this separation

Acknowledging a deeper aspect to the separation beyond what is known.

But it's cold

Describing the emotional chill associated with the separation.


I can see where this is going

Observing the trajectory of the situation.

No one tells you how to live

Commenting on the absence of guidance on how to navigate life.

You have your world, I'm drowning in mine

Expressing feeling overwhelmed in one's own world.

Same time next week

Suggesting a recurring meeting or encounter.


And I don't care what your friends are doing

Reiterating disregard for the opinions and actions of friends.

And I don't care what they need

Indicating indifference to the needs or desires of others.

I will be there one day... that we know

Expressing confidence in a future reunion, despite challenges.

But it's all coming up now

Acknowledging the imminent arrival of a significant event or change.


And I don't think they care

Questioning the concern or care of others.

Are they thinking of you

Pondering whether the friends are considering the listener's situation.

Are they thinking of you

Repeating the question, emphasizing the uncertainty of friends' thoughts.

And I don't care what your friends are saying

Restating the indifference to friends' opinions and rumors.

And I don't care what they're told

Reiterating the disregard for external influences and information.

And I know there's more to this separation

Acknowledging a deeper aspect to the separation beyond what is known (repeat).

But it's cold

Reiterating the emotional chill associated with the separation (repeat).
