Wait before you go, so you will know
What I am feeling as you leave
I understand your need for some time
Some solitude

Wait a while before you go
You should know by now
My heart belongs to you

I know that you must leave
And I can see that it's not easy for you
Now that I'll be here, I know that my soul
Is always near you

Wait a while before you go
You should know by now I love you
And so I will wait a while for you

The sand of time
Is slipping through my fingers
You and I
Still the memories linger on and on

Now I know if I can only let go
And wait a while, you'll be here again with me
The same old friends we've always been

Wait a while before you go
You should know by now I love you
And so I will wait a while

Wait a while
Wait a while for you
