wait for me...
Before the last snow flake falls
upon your outstretched tongue
wait for me this long, cold night
I'm on the way, I promise I'll come
Before the last log burns through
and the cold settles into your room
wait for me before you go to sleep
I'm on the way, I promise it will be soon.
And before your last gift is opened
and the tree begins to look bare
wait for me my babygirl
I'm on the way, you know I'll be there.
Before you give up hope and close your heart
Before you shed that first tear
wait for me and I'll take you in my arms
I'm on the way, can you feel me near?
Wait for me my babygirl
Nothing can stop me, keep me from your love
I promise my heart will soon join yours
I swear it will be so, to our very God above.
Wait for me to hold you tight
Wait for me love you this night
Wait for me to return to you
As I await the same thing too.
