While You're Waiting
Yearning Echoes: A Journey Through Love's Patient Wait
Lyrics
Time goes slowly
Time passes slowly, indicating a sense of prolonged waiting or anticipation.
Time goes silently
Time passes without making much noise, emphasizing a quiet, possibly introspective period.
Drags its feet, no it never flies
Time seems to move at a slow pace, not rushing or flying by.
While you're waiting for the love to return to her eyes
Expresses the experience of waiting for love to reappear in someone's eyes, suggesting a sense of longing and anticipation.
And words they fail you
Words become inadequate or insufficient to express feelings.
Words come awkwardly
Communication becomes awkward or challenging.
Leave your lips as they turn to sighs
Words transform into sighs, indicating a deep emotional response.
While you're waiting for the love to return to her eyes
Reiterates the theme of waiting for love to reappear in someone's eyes.
And what once shines so brightly
Highlights a contrast between a past brightness and a present, possibly dull or less vibrant state.
Makes the present seem so pale
Suggests that what was once vivid and shining now seems less significant or vibrant in the current moment.
Once held in arms so tightly
Describes a previous close and intimate connection.
Now you're just a ship without a sail, without a sail
Metaphorically portrays the current state as being adrift or without direction.
And thoughts grow stormy
Thoughts become turbulent or unsettled.
Thoughts weigh heavily
Thoughts feel burdensome or weigh heavily on the mind.
Feels as if the sun will never rise
Describes a sense of prolonged darkness or emotional difficulty.
While you're waiting for the love to return to her eyes
Reiterates the theme of waiting for love to reappear in someone's eyes, tying it to the emotional challenges.
