Wait before you go,
So you will know, what I am feeling as you leave
I understand, your need for some time
Some solitude
Wait a while, before you go
You should know by now, my heart belongs to you
I know that you must leave
And I can see, that it's not easy for you, now that I'll be here, I know that my soul
Is always near you
Wait a while before you go
You should know by now I love you and so I will wait a while For you
The sand of time is slipping through my fingers
You and I, still the memories linger on
And on
Now I know that if I can only let go
And wait a while, you'll be here again with me
The same old friends we've always been
Wait a while before you go
You should know by now I love you and so I will wait a while
Wait a while
Wait a while
For you
