Lyrics
Waited a while for love to start
Expressing patience in waiting for love to begin
When it did, it was all too fast
Love came abruptly and possibly too quickly
Guess I'll wait a while again
Considering another period of waiting for love
Standing there letting no one in
Standing alone and not letting anyone into their life
Getting older, no one's there
Feeling alone as they age, with no one around
Let it overflow again
Allowing emotions to overflow once more
Waited a while for love to spark
Waiting again for love to ignite
Next time no one in the dark
Deciding not to be in the dark about love next time
Lying in another bed
Lying in bed with someone unfamiliar
Someone there doesn't know my name
The person in bed doesn't know the speaker's name
Getting older, no one's there
Feeling alone with age and letting emotions overflow
Letting overflow again
Continuing to let emotions overflow
Let it overflow again
Repeating the act of emotional overflow
Listen then
Encouraging someone to listen
Can you hear what I'm saying?
Asking if the listener can comprehend the speaker's words
Can't wait another night
Impatience, expressing a reluctance to wait another night
My God, we'll open up the door
Reference to opening up possibilities, possibly to love
Let me know if everything alright
Seeking assurance about the well-being of everything
Waited a while for love to start
Another instance of waiting for love to begin
When it did, it was over false
Love ended due to deception or falsehood
Guess I'll wait a while again
Considering waiting again after a failed love
Let it overflow then
Allowing emotions to overflow once more
Get it older, no one cares
Getting older and feeling uncared for
But I know that love is there
Despite feeling alone, recognizing that love exists
Let it overflow again, oh again
Letting emotions overflow again
Waiting on the night
Waiting for a night without someone to reassure
No one there to tell you that it's alright
Expressing the absence of someone to say everything is alright
