Waiting For
Jamming O.P. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll be waiting for you
Even if it takes you all of your life
I'll be waiting for you
'Til you know within yourself that you are so divine

Baby baby
I know what you want from you
Can you see me?
I'm divinity
And I can mean so much to you
You're like the moon, you're like the stars,
You're like the sun
It'll take more than just a lifetime to understand
Where we are

So patience is nothing
'Cause I'll do anything for you

I'll be waiting for you
Even if it takes you all of your life
I'll be waiting for you
'Til you know within yourself that you are so divine

Baby tell me
Why must there be pain with you
Your precious emotions
When will they be free from you
See you're like the moon, you're like the stars,
You're like the sun
And everything else I need confuses me so much
So

Baby don't hate me
'Cause I've seen better things in you

I'll be waiting for you
Even if it takes you all of your life
I'll be waiting for you
'Til you know within yourself that you are so divine

See you're like the moon, you're like the stars,
You're like the sun
And I can bet that you matter but I'm having too much fun
So
Maybe baby, love will save me
And I can keep your hate from you

I'll be waiting for you
Even if it takes you all of your life
I'll be waiting for you
'Til you know within yourself that you are so divine





[Chorus x2]
