Everyday I'm still amazed at your beauty and your imperfections,
I got beneath your skin and loved you in your vanities and indiscretions,
All your haves and your have-nots will turn to dust in time,
There's still a chance to save yourself while I've got you on the line, and you know it.
Baby, I'll wait for you,
It's not too late for you,
You've been right, you've been wrong,
Your so weak, you could be strong,
Baby, I'll wait for you.
You don't see clear,
I'm standing here in the shadows of imagination,
And you alone form blood and bone, put flesh around my incarnation,
I smell the rain here in your hair, see the tears that mark your face,
But I'm just a ghost that can't be seen without the eyes of faith, and you know it.
Baby, I'm here for you,
Have I made it clear to you?
Whether you're up, whether you're down, you know I'll always be around,
Baby, I'm here for you.
When first beheld the man you nailed down his open hands, 'cause he wasn't much to look at way back then,
And a dance of freedom's raised a storm,
A day for death, a time to mourn, until that long lost love is born again.
Oh baby, I'll wait for you.
God knows you've tried to close your eyes to secrets everybody's onto,
In your shadowed brow the demons growl,
They've left furrows in all the faces that you've gone through,
But you still wear the wedding dress, though it hangs like tattered sheets,
Beyond the flesh that is revealed, I only play for keeps, and you know it.
Baby, I'll wait for you,
It's not too late for you,
You've been right, you've been wrong,
Your so weak, you could be strong,
Baby, I'm here for you,
Have I made it clear to you?
Whether you're up, whether you're down, you know I'll always be around,
Baby, I'll wait for you, (I'll wait for you)
Baby, I'll wait for you, (I'll wait for you)
Baby, I'll wait for you, (I'll wait for you)
It's not too late for you, (I'll wait for you)
Baby, I'll wait for you, (I'll wait for you)
Baby, I'll wait for you, (I'll wait for you)
Baby, I'll wait for you, (I'll wait for you)
Baby, I'll wait for you. (I'll wait for you)
