Wait Lyrics by Nao

And Then Life Was Beautiful

2021

[Verse 1]
Is it time? Is it space?
Maybe it's just that we need to be honest
'Cause we've been up, face-to-face
Really wish that we could say what we wanted
We're emotional, but we're through it all

[Chorus]
Oh, wait
We ain't perfect, we ain't perfect, wait
The only way to learn is through mistakes
Trying to run away is only human
But if we stay, then we might make it home

[Verse 2]
Talk to me 'cause I can't read your mind
Tell me the truth even though it might kill mе
We both know that we're just wasting timе
Tryna survive instead of just feeling
We're emotional, but we're worth it all

[Chorus]
Oh, wait
We ain't perfect, we ain't perfect, wait
The only way to learn is through mistakes
Trying to run away is only human
But if we stay, then we might make it home
Yeah, we might make it, we might make it home
Oh, we might make it, we might make it home
It's okay that we don't have it all
Oh, 'cause the pain never waits for the fall

[Outro]
Maybe we should stay
I know that it's worth it if we stay
The only way to feel it is to break
Trying to run away is only human
But if we stay, then we might make it home
Yeah, we might make it, we might make it home
We might make it, we might make it home
Oh, we should stay so we can make it home
