Don't Make Me Wait
ϯ¶û(Seal) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Are we tired of feeling blue
Can I get along with you
Just don't tell me try
Every time we fuss and fight
What I really try to say
Is I won't be afraid, yah
Close your eyes and maybe - maybe see it through
Don't make me wait long
Sounds like a sad song of mine
Every time we meet baby on the street there we go
Always seem to fight why we do I never now that
All I can take
'Cause you ain't easy
Some can relate
That's life, get back together, every time
It amazes me to say, yah
I've been so tired to find my way, close to you
To love divine is what I - what I'm gonna do
Yah, What I'm really trying to say
Is love won't deny me, cause everyday is like a newly day
Lovin' till the end yah yah yah yah:.
Don't make me wait long
Sounds like a sad song of mine
Every time we meet baby on the street there we go
Always seem to fight why we do I never now that
All I can take
'Cause you ain't easy
Some can relate
So I dream of
And dream of
And dream of
And dream of your life
And dream of
And that's how we make love
And we dream of
And dream of
And dream of
And dream through the night
Don't make me wait long
Don't make me wait long
Every time we meet baby on the street there we go
Always seem to fight why we do, I never now that
All I can take
'Cause you ain't easy
Some can relate, hey
That's life, get back together, every time.
In "Don't Make Me Wait," Seal is expressing his frustration with the fighting and disagreements he has with his significant other. He questions whether they are tired of feeling unhappy and asks if they can just get along. He pleads with his partner not to tell him to try every time they fight because what he really wants to say is that he won't be afraid to work on their relationship. Seal affirms that if his partner is willing, they can work together to overcome their problems and reach a deeper love. He encourages them to close their eyes and see it through, hoping that they can let go of past hurts and build a stronger connection.
The song has a repetitive theme of not wanting to wait long, indicating that Seal is eager for resolution and wants to move forward in their relationship. He acknowledges that their fights are like a sad song, a metaphor for the emotional toll the constant arguing takes. Every time they meet, they seem to end up fighting, and Seal doesn't understand why. He recognizes that his partner isn't easy to deal with, but he is willing to put in the effort to make their relationship work. Seal ends the song by saying that he dreams of their life together and that they can make it through their troubles and be together.

Based on your lesson, are the following correct:
The  sounds like opening your mouth at the doctor or dentist?
A = ah - tache (tahsh)
 = aah - tâche (taahsh)
The Î Ô Û sound almost the same as I O U?
I = ee - il (eel)
Î = ee - île (eel)
O = o - mot (mo)
Ô = o - tôt (to)
U = ew - sur (sewr)
Û = ew - sûr (sewr)
Merci!

Only one more accent tomorrow, the "tréma". We will also see the "Ç" in this lesson so don't forget to subscribe so you don't miss it 🙂
At 7:47 it should be "Une bûche", not "Un bûche" 🙃
