What are the lyrics to Wait by Sarah McLachlan?

Answer 1

I have a smile

Stretched from ear to ear

To see you walking down the road

We meet at the lights

I stare for a while

The world around disappears

Just you and me

On this island of hope

A breath between us could be miles

Let me surround you

My sea to your shore

Let me be the calm you seek

Oh and every time I'm close to you

There's too much I can't say

And you just walk away

And I forgot

To tell you

I love you

And the night's

Too long

And cold here

Without you

I grieve in my condition

For I cannot find the strength to say I need you so

Oh and every time I'm close to you

There's too much I can't say

And you just walk away

And I forgot

To tell you

I love you

And the night's

Too long

And cold here

Without you

Answer 2

I will remember you, will you remember me?

Don't let your life pass you by,

Weep not for the memories

Remember the good times that we had?

I let them slip away from us when things got bad.

How clearly I first saw you smilin' in the sun

Wanna feel your warmth upon me

I wanna be the one

I will rememeber you, will you remember me?

Don't let your life pass you by

Weep not for the memories

I'm so tired but I can't sleep

Standin' on the edge of something much too deep

It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word

We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard

But I will remember you, will you remember me?

Don't let your life pass you by

Weep not for the memories

I'm so afraid to love you

But more afraid to lose

Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose

Once there was a darkness

Deep and endless night

You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light

And I will remember you, will you remember me?

Don't let your life pass you by

Weep not for the memories

Weep not for the memories

Answer 3

Under a blackened sky

far beyond the glaring streetlights

sleeping on empty dreams

the vultures lie in wait

You lay down beside me then

you were with me every waking hour

so close I could feel your breath

When all we wanted was the dream

to have and to hold that precious little thing

like every generation yields

the new born hope unjaded by their years

Pressed up against the glass

I found myself wanting sympathy

but to be consumed again

oh I know would be the death of me

and there is a love that's inherently given

a kind of blindness offered to appease

and in that light of forbidden joy

oh I know I won't receive it

When all we wanted was the dream

to have and to hold that precious little thing

like every generation yields

the newborn hope unjaded by their years

You know if I leave you now

it doesn't mean that I love you any less

it's just the state I'm in

I can't be good to anyone else like this

When all we wanted was the dream

to have and to hold that precious little thing

like every generation yields

the new born hope unjaded by their years...

Answer 4

[Chorus: x2]

Girl I love you more than anything in this whole world, your the reason that my life is so beautiful girl, Girl I need you more than the air that I breathe everyday, Please don't ever ever ever ever ever go away.

[Verse 1:]

Have you ever loved somebody so much, you can't sleep

Every minute by your side is like heaven to me

Babygirl everytime I look into your eyes, I wanna kiss your lips and tell you a thousand times,

Your more pretty than the skies are blue, like the rays from the sun when I'm close to you

Even with all these problems we had to go through

I'll do it all once again just to be with you, Lil' mama today is your day to shine forget what everybody says this is yours and mine

All I need is your touch and your lovin' everyday

And were gonna make this last until the end of always

Invite your friend and you family too, I want the whole world to know I'm crazy for you

Forget about your problems let me make things right and let me love you girl, for life

[Chorus]

[Verse 2:]

I knew it from my first kiss, never imagined myself feeling like this

I see forever in your eyes, you took me by surprise by the way you are

Your the wish that came true from that falling star

Your the air that I breathe and everything I need The missing piece that completed me

And put me back together when I was under the weather You were the melody that made me feel so better

Kisses and hugs x's and o's at the end of love letters sweeter than a box of chocolates, Everday is valentine when I'm with you

Your my lady and I'm you rider, and I'm always gonna be right here beside you

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]

Please don't ever go away

(Oooooh)

Lil' mama cause I love you

(Cause I love you)

Lil' mama cause I need you

(Cause I need you, Please don't go away)
