I’ll Wait For You
Music and Lyrics By:
Gil Kline – Here Strums The Bride
Verse 1:
One spring day in Tallahassee
Dave went to a club to unwind
So he could say goodbye to an old love
A new partner was not on his mind
As Ray walked in, Dave resisted instead
But thoughts of Ray flowed through his head
Verse 2:
So
Dave drove back, in two weeks to find him
To see if this man would return
Against all odds, Ray stood right beside him
Their eyes met as hearts softly burned
They talked for hours endlessly
They kissed each other passionately
Chorus:
I’ll wait, as long as it takes
To walk down the aisle
And feel your embrace
I’ll wait as long as it takes
For a ring on our fingers
For our vows to exchange
And forever more
It is you I adore
It’s been 22 years
I’d wait 22 more, to show our love
Verse 3:
One summer day, in Pensacola
As they walked, down the beach hand and hand
Ray took his arm, and pointed upwards
To express how he felt to his man
Behind a plane showed a single line
“Wana turn two years into a lifetime”
Chorus:
I’ll wait, as long as it takes
To walk down the aisle
And feel your embrace
I’ll wait as long as it takes
For a ring on our fingers
For our vows to exchange
And forever more
It is you I adore
It’s been 22 years
I’d wait 22 more, to show our love
Bridge:
That day came and Ray kneelt on the floor
To propose and pronounce, “I’m all yours”
20 years since that day on the shore
Cause society strictly said no
But the law does catch up to their hearts
They prevail, no they don’t fall apart
Cause their love is so sweet to the core
Now they don’t have to wait anymore
Anymore
Chorus:
I’ll wait, as long as it takes
To walk down the aisle
And feel your embrace
I’ll wait as long as it takes
For a ring on our fingers
For our vows to exchange
And forever more
It is you I adore
It’s been 22 years
I’d wait 22 more, to show our love
