[Verse 1:]
“Looking in my wife’s brown eyes, wonder if she knows I’m scared
Better yet I’m terrified, I ain’t ready and I ain’t prepared
Oh my God I’ma be a father
We gone have a son or a daughter
What will I do when I see him or her breathing their first breath?
It only gets harder
Money funny, I need something new, growing up and don’t know what to do
How am I going to raise a child, Lord show me how to trust in You
I ain’t even trying to complain, I just kinda need a shoulder to cry on
With my own understanding of things, I’ll never be a priest over my home
So I’m gone, memory lane, no wait, that’s the street that I died on
Nah man, I gotta stay here, even though my way ain’t all the way clear
[Chorus:]
I ain’t going nowhere, until there’s no more fear, take a second take a minute take an hour take a day take a whole year - I’ll wait, for you. I’ll wait here like a lovesick fool. My whole life’s with you, so what I’ll say, I gotta do. I’ll wait for you. I’ll wait here like a lovesick fool. My whole life’s with you. I’ll be waiting
[Verse 2:]
Looking in my wife’s brown eyes, wonder if she knows I’m scared, turn off the lights, we kiss goodnight, I’m crying now, as I rub her hair
Christina, my dear dreamer, I don’t ever want to leave you, but baby maybe I need to
Help me Lord Jesus!
I’m a silly fool, I love this woman. I really do. But lust for women, I want forgiveness, I wonder if it’ll kill me soon?
If I have a son how I’m gone teach him how to treat a lady?
And if it’s my Blue what am I to do if she sees me with another lady like
‘Mommy who’s that daddy’s talking to?’
My son be like
‘Can I talk to you? Remember when you caught me own the computer looking at girls? Well, I caught you too.’
I lost a few of my friends, cause all they do is pretend. So I talk to You because Your love covers a multitude of sin
But I don’t want this, I’m just love-sick, so I gotta stay here even though my way ain’t all the way clear
[Chorus:]
I ain’t going nowhere, until there’s no more fear, take a second take a minute take an hour take a day take a whole year - I’ll wait, for you. I’ll wait here like a love-sick fool. My whole life’s with you, so what I’ll say, I gotta do. I’ll wait for you. I’ll wait here like a love-sick fool. My whole life’s with you. I’ll be waiting. (Oh my God, help me. Show me how to wait for You, Jesus)
Looking in my wife’s brown eyes, wonder if she knows I’m scared…
[Verse 3:]
Rest in peace, tell them baby boys it’s so hard to get along without you, I haven’t gotten to know you yet, but if I’m honest I don’t even really want to
Lord I can’t keep myself together, How am I supposed to lead my wife now?
I’ve never struggled with belief in you, but if I’m honest it’s a fight right now
Cause I’m confused, I’m so gone, it’s been so hard to come back home
Lord Your arms, they feel so far, as I wait for peace to come
Never gonna be the man I want to be, never gonna be the man she want to see
I’ve never been so lovesick in my life, I didn’t think it was something I could be
All these shortcomings I’m aware of, all these small things I have a fear of
They just pile on top of me and at the end I’m just left feeling like a failure
God I’m so lovesick, yeah I need You to whisper in my ear, feel I’ve been captured by the cares of the world, on top of that, Lord take my fear
[Chorus:]
I ain’t going nowhere, until there’s no more fear, take a second take a minute take an hour take a day take a whole year - I’ll wait, for you. I’ll wait here like a love-sick fool. My whole life’s with you, so what I’ll say, I gotta do. I’ll wait for you. I’ll wait here like a love-sick fool. My whole life’s with you. I’ll be waiting.” (You promised to never leave me nor forsake me…)
