The Wait



TICK
TOCK
The clock ticks.. seconds to minutes
minutes to hours.. hours to days
days turn to months.. months.. months
I watch the sands of time slip through my fingers
Wishing you were back here with me
Just so I could see you smile.. laugh.. sing.. dance
In due time.. I keep telling myself
You'll be back where you belong, in my arms
So patiently I wait

I'll be waiting 
Cos I can't smile until I see your smile
I'll be waiting
There's nothing else that I would rather do
I'll be waiting
Cos I can't sleep until I hear your heart
I'll be waiting
Patiently I'll wait right here for you


TICK
TOCK
I resent the distance, I resent the time
Yet as I watch the minutes slip through my fingers
I realize I'm a minute closer to your touch
Your breath.. Your warmth.. Your heart..
For what we share transcends both time and space
Like time, this thing we share is irreversible
And you, my dear, are irreplaceable
So I wait, for in due time
You'll be back in my arms


I don't care how long it takes
I don't mind, I'm alright, I'll sit and wait
Till the sun goes down 
And comes back up again
You're the best thing in my life
Without you it just ain't right
So take as long as you like
I'm Waiting


TICK
TOCK


Waiting ... Waiting ... Waiting ... Waiting
Patiently I'll wait right here for you


TICK
TOCK


Cos I can't smile until I see your smile
Cos I can't sleep until I hear your heart


TICK
TOCK


So patiently I'll wait right here for you
Waiting ... Waiting ... Waiting ... Waiting


Gloomy future without you
There is only one you
So ever so patiently
I wait



~ For Amariee ... hope you love it.
~ Also, for all others in long distance relationships, or temporarily away from their significant others and special people.
~ Inspired by a lot of things but mainly Beyonce's new song 'Waiting'. I've properly killed that song, even my dog, Whisky can bark that song. hahaha!

  5. Yeah they are difficult...but when u know what u want, it becomes incredibly simple...not easy, but simple..cos u realize whateva u r losing at d moment doesn't compare to d joy u feel jus bcos u're his, n he urs. Those r my thoughts... not every1 can do long distance..only those who know what they want in life chale, and understand that things cud get really hard, or really bad...but then if ur relationship can withstand long distance, u're pretty much set, u can probably face anythn...so keep coping JuaNita.... (see how i rubbed a truck load of grease on ur elbows..haha)
