A Little Longer
The Madison Letter Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothign can change what's destined
One night standing in a crowded room
I was introduced to you
Talking escalated now we're here
It's like we've known each other for years
Mutual, longing to be more than friends
Keep saying that someday,
Someday this is gonna all change
And it's not that I'm never gonna have you
I just can't have you yet
And it'll be that much better once I get to
Cause it's just like you said
Distance makes the human heart grow fonder
We just gotta wait a little longer
We just gotta wait a little longer
Two times two thousand miles away
Separating us from now
Waiting, this is the game the force to play
No matter how long it takes
Holding on to everything we know is true
There's nothing else we can do
Keep saying that nothing,
Nothing can change what's destined
And it's not that I'm never gonna have you
I just can't have you yet
And it'll be that much better once I get to
Cause it's just like you said
Distance makes the human heart grow fonder
We just gotta wait a little longer
We just gotta wait a little longer
Right here right now we couldn't be closer
It's like you're here with me
Just like you used to be
And as time goes by
The wait gets shorter
Between now and what's soon to be
Just don't you let go of me
Don't you let go, don't you let go of me
Just a little bit longer
Just a little bit longer
Cause it's not that I'm never gonna have you
I just can't have you yet
And it'll be that much better once I get to
Cause it's just like you said
Distance makes the human heart grow fonder
We just gotta wait a little longer
We just gotta wait a little longer
Keep saying that someday,
Someday this is gonna all change
Yeah
