If it takes forever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
Till you're back beside me
Till I'm holding you
And forever more I'll wait for you

Anywhere you wander anywhere you go
Every day remember still I love you so
In your heart believe what in my heart I know
That forevermore I'll wait for you

If it takes forever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
Till you're back beside me till I'm holding you
And forever more I'll wait for you
For you

I'll wait
I'll wait and wait
For you
And forever and ever




I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you

If it takes forever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
'Till you're back beside me, 'till I'm holding you
'Till I hear you sigh here in my arms

Anywhere you wander, anywhere you go
Every day remember how I love you so
In your heart believe what in my heart I know
That forevermore I'll wait for you

The clock will tick away the hours one by one
And then the time will come when all the waiting's done
The time when you return and find me here and run
Straight to my waiting arms

If it takes forever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
'Till you're here beside me, 'till I'm touching you
And forevermore sharing our love

'Till you're here beside me, 'till I'm touching you
And forevermore I will wait for you

I don't know how to describe what i feel, while listening to this voice! Keep on singing with your heart! Your character (sensitivity, kindness and optimism), as well as your romantic soul led to all these wonderful songs! God bless you!! Wish you health and luck! Go on! We are with you!
