I Will Wait For you Songtext
von Josh Radnor

If you have to go to Paris in the spring
If it′s not time for you to wear this ring
If you need time to clear your mind until you have a clue
I will wait for you

If you need another month to think
If you need an even stronger drink
If your fears convince you you are bound to break in two
I will wait for you

Years ago you couldn't pin me down
I was running, running all over town
I couldn′t hear the sweet sound of your voice

If you're afraid and all that you can hear
Is your heartbeat and the blood inside your ears
If worry is an ocean and you're drowning in the blue
I will wait for you


If your eyes won′t close until the dawn
If you still need all the curtains drawn
When you can′t stop thinking of the drop of the other shoe
I will wait for you
I will wait for you

It's not fair to say I should move on
It′s your terror not me who will be gone
Until that day comes I'll just sing songs for you

Highways and restaurants
Airplanes and coffee shops
Book stores and museums overseas
Crowded parks and laundromats
Elevators, railroad flats
They′ll be there when you're back up on your feet

The world continues to spin
Where you′ll be is not where you have been

One April day, all the clouds will part
And you will hear the music of your heart
Till you've the urge to reemerge and come back into view
I will wait for you


In forty years, if you're still around
If you′re in our house while I am in the ground
If I reach the holy gates of heaven before you do
I will wait for you
I will wait for you
