Still A Wait
Chris Martin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She have my little heart floating
She lived up the road, from the church I went to
She was the prettiest thing
But she migrated to New York
When I was just thirteen
I was in love, so I kept in touch
Now ten years, six months, thirty days
She say, "Wow, you′ve been counting"
I said, "Baby, a la-la-la-la long time
I've been waiting on you, darling"
An′ I still a wait (still a wait)
Still a wait (still a wait)
Still a wait on your loving
I said I still a wait (still a wait)
Still a wait (still a wait)
Still a wait on you, darling
I said I still a wait, still a wait
Still a wait, still a wait on your loving
I said I still a wait, still a wait
Still a wait, still a wait on you
Believe me, the day you leave me
I never felt so much pain
I'm missing you completely, hurting deeply

She was the most beautiful person I had ever seen
But she migrated to New York
She moved to New York to live
When I was just thirteen
This happened when I was only thirteen years old
I was in love, so I kept in touch
I was in love with her and continued to communicate with her
Till I was about sixteen
