Analysis of Wait

Lucky Samant 2004 (India)



If waiting for you was ever easy,
I wish I could make the night wait too,
And watch it lose, letting the dawn win over,
Just as I watch myself falling
more and more for you!

But the wait isn't easy,
Nor does the night wanna stay,
I'm not ready to give up on us
So I'll wait until you realise
And I hear you say.

I'll wait just as the moon does
To embrace the night,
And if in this lifetime I can't find you,
I'll wait, for in next, I might !
