Wait for Me
Spraggan Lucy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's a big black cloud and it's hiding me from me
I'd never trade in my guitar for an umbrella
But I'd let it go, let it go, let it go
So I leave ten thousand miles
Between me and the world I know
I ride a mo-ped, two small alleys
I will accept the wind and rain
And I'll be back in a hurricane
Wait for me, wait for me
It's not too late for me
I'll be back in a hurricane
Wait for me, wait for me
It's not too late for me
I'll be back in a hurricane
I've been getting lost in different seasons
Automatically, I lost my Spring
But the only Summer I have to believe in
Is winter cold, winter cold, winter cold
And now I'm five thousand miles away
From where I should be
I get a taxi to 8th Street
And now I'm on my way
I will accept the wind and rain
And I'll be back in a hurricane
Wait for me, wait for me
It's not too late for me
I'll be back in a hurricane
Wait for me, wait for me
It's not too late for me
I'll be back in a hurricane
Won't stop 'til I see the sun
I won't jump the gun
But I'll let it go, let it go, let it go
Won't stop 'til I see the sun
As the colours run
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Wait for me, wait for me
It's not too late for me
I'll be back in a hurricane
Wait for me, wait for me
It's not too late for me
I'll be back in a hurricane
In the song "Wait for Me" by Lucy Spraggan, she opens up about a period of her life where she was struggling with feeling lost and detached from herself. The first verse describes her feeling "under the weather" and hidden from herself by a "big black cloud." She acknowledges her love for music, comparing it to an umbrella, but also suggests that she needs to let go of it for a while.
The chorus provides some hope, as she promises to come back "in a hurricane" and urges whoever is waiting for her to hold on. In the second verse, she talks about how she feels like she's "getting lost in different seasons" and has lost her sense of self. She mentions that the only "summer" she can believe in is the "winter cold," which highlights the sense of confusion she's feeling.
Despite being thousands of miles away from where she should be, she's determined to keep going until she sees the sun. The song seems to be about Lucy's determination to keep moving forward and find her way back to herself, even when she feels like everything is against her.
