Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll wait, wait right here
I'll wait, wait right here
I'll wait, wait right here
I'll wait, wait right here for you
See what I can do
Say the words
Why won't you tell me
I'll wait, wait right here for you
See what I must do
Won't you please, take my hand
Tonight
Whisper through, you sound so close
Tonight
Whisper words, sound so clear
Listen close, can't you hear now
Can't you hear now
Can't you hear now
Can't you hear now
Can't you hear now
Oh
Oh
I I I I'll wait
Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
Tonight, one last chance to be
Here just you and me
Feel so right
Though it's wrong
Tonight, one last chance to be
Here just you and me
Won't you please, take my hand
Tonight
Whisper through, you sound so close
Tonight
Whisper words, sound so clear
Listen close, can't you hear now
Can't you hear now
Can't you hear now
Can't you hear now
Listen close can't you hear now
Oh

Ohh
Ohh
I'll wait, wait right here
I'll wait, wait right here
