Made You Wait
Longing and Patience: The Tale Behind 'Made You Wait' by Sharin Attamimi
Lyrics
Say he wants me back
Saying that he expresses a desire for reconciliation.
Think he's got attached to my bedtime tunes
Believes he has become emotionally connected to her bedtime music.
Say he likes my back
Claims he appreciates her physical appearance, particularly her back.
And he gets sidetracked at the sight of my tattoos
States he becomes distracted when he sees her tattoos.
He says just one more day
Expresses a desire for just one more day in their relationship.
Just one more night
Expresses a desire for just one more night together.
Just one more word
Desires just one more conversation or interaction.
Just one more time
Wants just one more moment with her.
But we turn into one thousand and one nights
Despite intentions for brevity, their interactions multiply into many nights, referencing the tale of "One Thousand and One Nights."
Coz I made you wait
Repetition emphasizing the singer's acknowledgment that she has made him wait.
Coz I made you wait
-Yeah I made you wait
-Coz I made you wait
-Coz I made you wait
-I made you wait
-For them bed time tales
Expresses waiting for bedtime stories and tales, with a desire for understanding and connection, but fearing potential emotional pain.
For them bed time stories
-Wanna know what happens next
-And if and when if only
-He could get to know me
-Let me tell my stories
-Maybe he wont hurt me
-And I'll stay alive for just one more
-Just one more day
-Just one more night
-Just one more word
-Just one more time
-But we turn into one thousand and one nights
Reiterates the unintentional extension of their interactions into many nights.
Coz I made you wait
Repetition reinforcing the acknowledgment of making him wait.
Coz I made you wait
-Yeah I made you wait
-Coz I made you wait
-Coz I made you wait
-I made you wait
