I Will Wait

Aboard his ship he stops to stare

Needs to smell her, touch her hair

Says,"I can't be without her"

Tonight he's going to be without her

"It's late now", She says

Makes her mind up goes to bed

Another night alone without him

Another night alone in Charleston

When I wake to find the solace of

All that we've become

I can't wait to make the promises

I've been leery of, take me down

Let me see

I'll be there waiting

(I'll be there waiting for you)

In the morning when times have changed

I'll be there through the lies and all

I'll be standing like a soldier for you

So you hold your secrets

Through the days when I need to be alone

(I will wait)

I will wait for you

Through the rise and fall

She was left behind so they could stay

Got to feel him this she prays

It'd make her feel so much better

I want to feel so much better

When I wake to find the solace of

All that we've become

I can't wait to make the promises

I've been leery of, take me down

Let me see

I'll be there waiting for you

(I'll be there waiting)

In the morning when times have changed

I'll be there through the lies and all

I'll be standing like a soldier for you

So you

(Hold)

Your secrets

Through the days when I need to be alone

(I will wait)

I will wait for you

Through the rise and fall

When I wake to find the solace of

All, all we've become

I can't wait to make the promises

That I've been leery of, take me down

Let me see

I'll, I'll, I'll be there

(I'll be there waiting for you)

In the morning when times have changed

I'll be there through the lies and all

I'll be standing like a soldier for you

So you

(Hold)

Your secrets

Through the days when I need to be alone

(I will wait)

I will wait for you

Through the rise and fall

(I'll be there)

I'll be there

In the morning when times when times have changed

(I will wait)

I will wait for you

Through the rise and fall
