Wait

Eight people late at night sitting in my room. Some are friends, some I got to know that night itself. Wine, music, many languages. Lives which cross each other.

You did not dare say a single word,
I did not dare ask for something more
I’ve kept my questions secret deep inside,
but I wish I could have let you know about
a time when I would have said:

"Wait, and please stay."
Did you mean to push me away?
"Please wait and just stay."
Did you want it to be this way?

Would you want to know what I've been through?
(through all this time... all this time)
Would you want to know I have missed you too?
(and I have you on my mind)
And you've been and you will be a part of me.
(that I can't find)
And you've been forgiven for your silence
all this time when I would have said:

"Wait, and please stay."
Did you mean to push me away?
"Please wait and just say:
Is there a way that could replace
the times you never said
"How've you been?"
"Do you need anything?"
"I want you to know I'm here."
"I want you to feel me near"?

Yeah...and I hope,
I hope that you will find your way.
Yeah...and I hope,
I hope there will be better days.

Please wait, and just stay
(Please stay)
Did you mean to push me away?
Please wait, and just stay
(Wait, just stay)
Did you want it to be this way?
Wait, please say
(Yeah, and I hope)
I hope that you will find your way
Please wait, and just stay
(Wait, and I hope)
I hope there will be better days

Hey hey...

Wait
Please stay
Just stay
Please wait
