Waiting For You
Nightshine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're who I wanna hold
I watch you standing staring far across the room and I think oh
I can not let you go
And all these feelings haunting me til' I fall apart
And all these feelings holding me down
Can you turn me around
But I'll be waiting, waiting for you
Praying, praying that you stay with, stay with me
Forever
Even if they're saying, saying that we're sinking, sinking
I'll keep waiting, waiting for you forever
I held you then
How bad I want to hold you now
That's how I know
I can let go (I can let go)
I haven't slept in days my mind is changing me
So baby
Come back to me
Cause all these demons lie with me
In my, in my head
And all these memories make me miss when you were in my bed
But I'll be waiting, waiting for you
Praying, praying that you stay with, stay with me forever
Even if they're saying, saying that we're sinking, sinking
I'll keep waiting, waiting for you forever
Make no mistake about it
Your body I can live without it
So I wanna apologise for pressing on
Theres no way around it
No way I'd ever doubt it
I wanna sing about our love until we're gone
But I'll be waiting, waiting for you
Praying, praying that you stay with, stay with me forever
Even if they're saying, saying that we're sinking, sinking
I'll keep waiting, waiting for you forever
Oh I'll be waiting, waiting for you
Praying, praying that you stay with, stay with me forever
Even if they're saying, saying that we're sinking, sinking
I'll keep waiting, waiting for you forever
The lyrics to Nightshine's song, "Waiting for You", speak of a deep longing and desire for someone. The singer watches this person from afar, wanting so badly to hold them and not let them go. However, the singer is haunted by their own feelings, holding them down and making them feel like they're falling apart. They ask this person to turn them around and bring them back to themselves. Even though all these people are saying that they're sinking, the singer will wait forever for this person to stay with them.
As the song progresses, we learn that the singer has held this person before and wants to hold them again. They can't sleep and their mind is changing them. All the demons and memories are lying with them in their head, and they miss when this person was in their bed. But despite all of this, the singer is willing to keep waiting forever.
Overall, the lyrics speak of a powerful love that cannot be easily let go of, despite the difficulties and challenges that come with it.

I watch you standing staring and far above myself and I think oh
I admire you and wish you were mine
You're who I wanna hold
I want to be in your arms
I watch you standing staring far across the room and I think oh
I can't take my eyes off you
I can not let you go
I'm unable to move on from you
And all these feelings haunting me til' I fall apart
My emotions are overwhelming and causing me distress
And all these feelings holding me down
My feelings are weighing me down
Can you turn me around
Can you help me feel better?
But I'll be waiting, waiting for you
I'll patiently wait for you
Praying, praying that you stay with, stay with me
I hope you'll remain by my side
Forever
For eternity
Even if they're saying, saying that we're sinking, sinking
Even if others think our relationship is failing
I'll keep waiting, waiting for you forever
I'll keep waiting for you no matter what
I held you then
I used to embrace you
How bad I want to hold you now
I yearn to hold you now
That's how I know
That's how I'm certain
I can let go (I can let go)
I'm unable to move on
I haven't slept in days my mind is changing me
My mind is consumed with thoughts of you, causing me to lose sleep
So baby
My dear
Come back to me
Return to my side
Cause all these demons lie with me
I'm struggling with my personal demons
In my, in my head
In the confines of my mind
And all these memories make me miss when you were in my bed
I miss the intimacy we shared
Make no mistake about it
Don't misunderstand
Your body I can live without it
I don't need your physical presence to survive
So I wanna apologise for pressing on
I'm sorry for being persistent
Theres no way around it
There's no avoiding it
No way I'd ever doubt it
I have complete faith in us
I wanna sing about our love until we're gone
I want to express my love for you until the end of our time together

I watch you standing, staring far above myself and I think ohhh
You’re who I wanna hold
I watch you standing staring far across the room and I think ohhh
I cannot let you go...
And all these feelings
Haunting me till I
Fall apart
And all these feelings holding me down
Can you turn me around?
But I’ll be waiting for you, waiting for you
Praying praying that you
Stay with, stay with me forever
Even if they’re saying saying that we’re sinking sinking
I’ll keep waiting, waiting for you forever
I held you then how bad I want to hold you now
That’s how I know
I can’t let go
I haven’t slept in days my mind’s a changing maze
Oh baby
Come back to me
Cuz All these demons lie with me in my... in my head....
And all these memories make me miss when you
Were in my bed
So I’ll keep waiting for you, waiting for you
Praying praying that you
Stay with, stay with me forever
Even if they’re saying saying that we’re sinking sinking
I’ll keep waiting, waiting for you forever
Make no mistake about it
Your body cannot live without it
So I won’t apologize for pressing on
There's no way around it
And no way I’d ever doubt it
I want to sing about our love
Until we’re goneeee
So I’ll keep waiting for you, waiting for you
Praying praying that you
Stay with, stay with me forever
Even if they’re saying saying that we’re sinking sinking
I’ll keep waiting waiting for you forever
So I’ll keep waiting for you, waiting for you
Praying praying that you
Stay with, stay with me forever
Even if they’re saying saying that we’re sinking sinking
I’ll keep waiting waiting for you forever
