Wait for Me

Sweet September rain Coming down hard on the roof of the car Familiar terrain I'm in a daydream, and the thoughts keep on coming Nineteen-eighty-two Was the year I fell head over heels with you I was only twenty-one What can I do now and what have I done? You've thrown it all away Six years go by, and they seem like a day You can dig for silver with a shovel of gold You can search for a lover and a hand to hold You can wait forever, or so I've been told But I will wait for you I will be waiting But I will wait for you Will you wait for me? Cold October wind Is chilling my bones out and slicing my skin I'm in this one-horse town Floating in a fish bowl upside-down But I still have my faith And I know my true love will come back to this place "Tonight, tonight," she said, "I'm looking for a real romance Somebody to dance with me." "Tonight, tonight," she said, "I'm waiting for my prince to come He will be my only one." Wet December snow And I can't help remembering someone I know But that was a long time ago If you had three wishes, what would they be? Would you change yourself Or would you try to change me? Do wishes come true - well, I'll just wait and see But I will wait for you I will be waiting But I will wait for you Will you wait for me
