Wait for You
Baron Bane Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I tore the pages out,
Though every word was true.
And watched the smoke erase
The memories of you.

I stay for you,
And I will wait for you.
Time will come,

And I will wait for you.

I saw you leave that night.
As someone new, as someone else.
And in the ashes I found,
Memories left behind.

I stay for you,
And I will wait for you.
Time will come,
And I will wait for you.

So significant it seems,
To decide one′s life;
To put order to things
That should have been left alone.

I stay for you,
And I will wait for you.
Time will come,
And I will wait for you.

I stay for you,
And I will wait for you.

Time will come,
And I will wait for you.

Line by Line Meaning

I tore the pages out,
I removed all the written words, though they were truthful.

Though every word was true.
Despite the genuineness of the words written.

And watched the smoke erase
I observed the smoke causing the obliteration of

The memories of you.
All the recollections of you.

I stay for you,
I am continuing as I have done for you,

And I will wait for you.
And I will remain patient for you.

Time will come,
A point in time will arrive,

And I will wait for you.
And I will endure for your arrival.

I saw you leave that night.
I witnessed your departure that evening.

As someone new, as someone else.
As though you were a person different from who I used to know.

And in the ashes I found,
And among the ruins,

Memories left behind.
Were resignations of the past.

So significant it seems,
It appears prominent enough,

To decide one′s life;
To decide the course of one's existence;

To put order to things
To establish proper arrangement from the beginning,

That should have been left alone.
That have already done with and should remain in the past.

I stay for you,
I am continuing as I have done for you,

And I will wait for you.
And I will remain patient for you.

Time will come,
A point in time will arrive,

And I will wait for you.
And I will endure for your arrival.

I stay for you,
I am continuing as I have done for you,

And I will wait for you.
And I will remain patient for you.

Time will come,
A point in time will arrive,

And I will wait for you.
And I will endure for your arrival.
