Lyrics
Waiting Here for You
Steve Domer 2016
I still remember like it's yesterday
The note you left me when you went away
I never will forget it,
Tears fell when I read it, just like rain
You said you needed time off on your own
You said didn't know when you would come back home
You said you didn't plan it,
And you hoped I understand it, just the same
So I'll be waiting
Each lonely night that's it's been taking
And every morning that I've waken
I count the hours 'til the day is through
And I'll be waiting here for you
The house is empty, it's so dark and cold
The sleepless nights, they start growing old
I don't know how I'm gonna make it,
And I've gotta just stop takin' all the blame
The season's over, hope you're doing well
A heart can heal, but only time will tell
I hope you know I'm sorry,
But I can hardly wait another day
So I'll be waiting
Each lonely night that's it's been taking
And every morning that I've waken
I count the hours 'til the day is through
And I'll be waiting here for you
I'll be waiting here for you
And I promise that it's true
If it's the last thing that I do
I'll be waiting here for you
I never wanted to live all alone
So I'm writing you a letter, saying "come back home"
Love can last forever, and we should stay together you and I
The road's not easy, there will be some bumps
We gotta hold on tight when the road gets rough
So I hope you got my letter
Saying how I'll make things better if you stay
So I'll be waiting
Each lonely night that's it's been taking
And every morning when I've waken
I count the hours 'til the day is through
Yes I'll be waiting
Each lonely night that's it's been taking
And every morning when I've waken
I count the hours 'til the day is through
And I'll be waiting here for you
Yes I'll be waiting here for you
And I promise that it's true
If it's the last thing that I do
I'll be waiting here for you
Waiting here for you
Don't you know that it's true
There's nothing more that I could do
I'll be waiting here for you (repeat and fade)
