Worth The Wait
Didirri Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

He loves her smile but hates her charm
She likes it when he's calm
He felt the shadow of her thumb
But maybe she just shades the sun

They'll stay apart until the date
When weren't to be is worth the wait
There's a soft and subtle hum
The paints the roses with the guns
There's too much other with the one
But that's ok if I don't run

You ran so fast you left me an open gate
To weren't to be and worth the wait
Or weren't to be is worth the wait

Still he worries about the bends
And whether they can reach the end
You see the tracks are running straight
Maybe they should just check the brakes

They'll stay apart until the date
When weren't to be is worth the wait
There's a soft and subtle hum
That paints the roses with the guns
There's too much other with the one
But that's ok if I don't run

You ran so fast you left me an open gate
To weren't to be and worth the wait
Or weren't to be is worth the wait

That's not worth the heavy weight
How long must she wait
Weren't to be is worth the wait
Weren't to be is worth the wait
Weren't to be is worth the weight

Overall Meaning

In "Worth The Wait" by Didirri, the lyrics delve into the complexities of a complicated relationship. The first verse portrays a situation where the singer is attracted to someone's smile but struggles with their charming personality. There is a sense of uncertainty as the singer feels both drawn and repelled by the person. This is highlighted by the line "But maybe she just shades the sun," suggesting that the person's presence can both overshadow and enhance their life.


The chorus emphasizes the concept of waiting for something to be worth it, even if it means staying apart for a while. The soft and subtle hum that "paints the roses with the guns" signifies the mixed emotions and contradictory nature of the relationship. It may appear that there are too many distractions or other options, but the singer seems willing to endure because running away is not an option.


The second verse introduces the singer's worries about the future of the relationship, specifically focusing on potential obstacles and doubts. The idea of checking the brakes suggests a metaphorical need to examine the stability and feasibility of the relationship before continuing. Despite these concerns, the singer acknowledges that they're willing to wait for it to be worth it.


The final section of the song questions whether the weight of the wait is truly worth it. The repetition of "Weren't to be is worth the wait" highlights the uncertainty and complexity of the situation. The singer ponders how long the person is willing to wait and ultimately questions whether the wait is worth the emotional toll it takes.


Overall, "Worth The Wait" presents a nuanced portrayal of a relationship caught between attraction and hesitation, uncertainty and hope.
