Whistle Clear, Whistle Clear I Will Wait

By Rachel Dunkerque AKA Carolyn V. Crawford
(lyric and melody)

A blazing sun burned cold behind my face
The day you turned and walked across the space
Into the arms of one from school-year days
Left me alone to yearn for yesterday
I walked away but found I never left
Remained to ponder all I couldn't forget
The kiss you smiled me when our eyes first met
That never promised there would be regret.

I wait to live again our briefest day
To hear you tender call me 'cross the way
To hasten, run into your arms to stay
To never leave, to never go away
And still I wait to hear you whistle clear
Beneath my window, make my earth stand still
And though I wait for you against my will
I'll wait forever, then again until.

REFRAIN
I will wait forever
Till I hear you 'neath my window
Whistle clear, whistle clear, I will wait.
In each season, I will listen
When the day ends, in a new day
Whistle clear, whistle clear, I will wait.
I will wait forever, I will wait forever
I will wait, I will wait, I will wait.
I WILL WAIT . . . I WILL WAIT . . . I WILL WAIT
I WILL WAIT. . . I WILL WAIT.
