David Archuleta - Wait

 

I can't sleep I'm feeling wide awake
Tonight is taking it's time
How much more before the morning breaks
And I can leave it all behind
'Cause everytime I try to close my eyes
I only end up seeing memories of you
And it's never enough
I'm waiting

Even though you're gone I can hear your heart
It's calling out my name like a flash in the dark
If this is just a dream I won't give it back
I'll find a way to make it last
One more minute
Wait wait wait don't go
Just one more minute
Wait wait wait don't go

I am keeping every word you said
But how much longer can I hold on
'Cause whispers echoing until they fade
Remind me that you're already gone
'Cause evertime I try to chase your voice
I end up getting lost and running in circles
And it's never enough
I'm waiting

Wait wait wait don't go
Just one more minute
Wait wait wait don't go

In daily life, we have been waiting for plenty of things, people or miracles to happen. Some would leave due to the impatient of waiting while the others will wait till it happens or appears.

We can be sitting at the restaurant waiting for someone who is late, watching all the people passed by, putting your head down so the waitress wouldnt question “Do you want to order anything yet ?” Then you would somehow blush and say “No, its okay I am still waiting for my friend.” And you will still be waiting and waiting.

No one likes the feeling of waiting, it literally slows the clock down. An hour of waiting would feel like a week, a month or a year for the person who waits. While the one who be waited, would feel time passed in a fast pace. If they are kind enough, a slight of guilt would rush into their mind and apologize for their mistake.

So in the end of the day, would you be the one waiting or be waited ?
