Wait for You
Victoria Horn Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Under my soul, I hide, chasing emotions
Can't you see?
If I let it go, will we reveal a sign of devotion?
All you feel

Sometimes there's a moment
Sometimes we don't see
Now we stand to frighten, scared to believe

Now I wait for you
Till you wake me, from my sleep
And I'll wait for you
Let my voice be, yours to keep

The touch of your hand, on me
A night everlasting, comes too deep
Don't make me wait, for what I need
This passion is burning, deep in me

Sometimes there's a moment
Sometimes we don't see
Now we stand to frighten, scared to believe

Now I wait for you
Till you wake me, from my sleep
And I'll wait for you
Let my voice be, yours to keep

Now I wait for you
Till you wake me, from my sleep
And I'll wait for you
Let my voice be, yours to keep

Wait for you
Wait for you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Victoria Horn's song "Wait For You" speak to the desire for an emotional connection and the fear of vulnerability that comes with it. The singer is holding back their true emotions and hiding them beneath the surface, but wonders if they were to let go, would their partner reciprocate the feelings and show a sign of devotion. The chorus repeats the sentiment of waiting for their partner to awaken them and allow them to surrender to the passion that is building within them.

The verses suggest that there are moments when we miss the opportunity for connection and the fear of rejection prevents us from taking the chance to reveal our true selves. The final lines of the song beg their lover not to make them wait for the emotional release they need, showing the sense of urgency and deep longing present in the singer's heart.
