Waiting For You

Waiting for you Been a long long time since I saw you and it's been so hard for me but in the cold dark night I can dream of you, and it's like you're here with me. Bridge Oh the nights can be so lonely a painful misery won't you come back to me? I try so hard not to think of you and the distance in between and in the cold dark night I imagine you are with me once again. Bridge Oh the nights can be so lonely a painful misery won't you come back to me? Chorus Waiting, waiting for you to come home and breathe life into me I'm alone here trapped in a memory only your love can set me free When will my dreams become reality? I'm still here waiting... Every day feels like a year I need you now, I need you here won't you come rescue me? Chorus Waiting, waiting for you to come home and breathe life into me I'm alone here trapped in a memory only your love can set me free The wait seems like an eternity at least it does to me but in the cold dark night I can dream of you it's like you're here with me Bridge Oh the nights can be so lonely a painful misery won't you come back to me? Chorus Waiting, waiting for you to come home and breathe life into me I'm alone here trapped in a memory only your love can set me free John Derek Hamilton April 11,2017

My friend, I have come here three different times to comment on these cool and relatable song lyrics. Each time interrupted...fourth time is the charm. This one sings itself John. Really nicely composed.

Thanks Chris, this one felt good as it flowed you know what I mean right, sometimes you just know it feels good, and others reaffirm it, so thanks for that!

The waiting can be excruciating and a seemingly endless void and your words convey the emotions beautifully John:) I imagine this to be a ballad the music, quite somber to match the mood. We all need a good cry once in a while to release the sorrow. I believe this is just the song:-) blessings xxx

Wow thanks so much Lynn, I enjoy your enthusiasm, I usually can sense if something is good or not, but when I see comments that this is confirms that I did something right, that touches the emotions, and that is yhe whole point isn't it?
