Wait - Maggie Reilly

Lying in my bed alone

And whispering your name

Wonder where you are tonight

And do you feel the same

Letting my thoughts fly to where

You might be

Sharing the secret that took you from me.

Heart is beating faster with

The memory of your touch

Try to ease this loneliness

I’m missing you so much

I’m with you when sleep comes

I find you in dreams

But wake to confusion

It’s not as it seems

I’m waiting for you

Those words I still hear you say

But it seems like a lifetime

Since you went away

These chains round my heart

And they’ll just won’t let me feel

Until you return I will never be free

I hear you call — wait for me

Do you still remember by the ocean

Oh so blue

As I looked into your eyes

You said that you’ll be true

The promises made

As we walked on the beach

Like the moon and the stars

Now so far out of reach

I’m waiting for you

Those words I still hear you say

But it seems like a lifetime

Since you went away

There’s chains round my heart

And they just won’t let me be

Until you return

I will never be free

I hear you call — Wait for me

Lying in my bed alone

And whispering your name

Wonder where you are tonight

And do you feel the same

Letting my thoughts fly

To where you might be

Sharing the secret

That took you from me

I’m waiting for you

Those words I still hear you say

But it seems like a lifetime

Since you went away

There’s chains round my heart

And they just won’t let me be

Until you return

I will never be free

I hear you call — Wait for me

I’m waiting for you

Because it’s all I can do

But it seems all my life

I’ve been waiting for you

This ache in my heart

You know it won’t let me be

Until you return

I will never be free

Still I can hear — Wait for me

I’m waiting for you

Those words I still hear you say

But it seems like a lifetime

Since you went away

There’s chains round my heart

And they just won’t let me be

Until you return

I will never be free

I hear you call — Wait for me
