Wait For You
Dayo Bello Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's funny how time flies
Just months ago I was wishing that you were mine
Still there's only one on my mind
And it's you
Don't wanna be alone
Not anymore
I've been the same for too long
But now I've got you
You came in and saved me from my own self
No one knows how it feels to be in my world
I was on the brink of giving up when God sent you
You, you, you
I, find it so easy to open up to you
Mysteries that no one's heard before
I tell you cos you're the one I adore
It feels so good when you knock on my door
Every time you leave it feels like summer's end
And it's a year before i see you next
I'll be waiting till then, loving you till the end

You came in and saved me from my own self
No one knows how it feels to be in my world
I was on the brink of giving up when God sent you
It's summer time with you when it rains
The sun shines through you everyday
You're my destiny so I can't escape
When it hurts you know what to say
I'll never ever wanna run away
Glory
My love, it doesn't matter where you are
Ooo, I'll love you near or far
Lighting up the night, you're my star
No matter where I go I look up
There's no way that we could ever part




We'll survive in the cold
(And it's) you, you, you

you’re my hearts escape
heaven’s gate
and the lights will fade
when i’m with you
i celebrate

when the sun sets to go by
you’ll be hard to find

chorus:
for it will be over
we’ll only got closer
