Wait for You Lyrics by Odette

Herald

2021

[Verse 1]
Don't you know I've been here before?
I can't help myself, I'm an open door
See these rooms in their melancholy gloom
It's so dark in here in my palace of ruin

[Chorus]
On and off I turn the lights
Even when it's dark at night, oh
Shadows flicker, then they vanish
I'm famished, I'm famished
Tenderly, I tend to me
As a mother really ought to be
But alas, I find no arms to hold mine

[Verse 2]
Don't you know that your scars are on show?
As they've always been when you're mad at me
Apologize two or three hundred times
It's just sound you make when you believe your lies

[Chorus]
On and off I turn the lights
Even when it's dark at night, oh
Shadows flicker, then they vanish
I'm famished, I'm famished
Tenderly, I tend to me
As a mother really ought to be
But alas, I find no arms to hold mine

[Outro]
I've been told not to let it take hold
Resist the embrace of this darkened place
But here I lie in this orange evening light
With the sun in my eyes as I wait for you
Wait for you
Wait for you
