Wait Love from Origin by Oh Pray Tell

WAIT LOVE by Sally Titasey

VERSE 1
Hands folding.
She is holding the crown
As the bottom falls out of a
Life waiting
To be carried home.
For the love to be shown, but she’s
Left wanting
To have and to hold
She’s oppressed and controlled
But she stands firmly
Because she knows
There’s nowhere else to go.

And don’t you…

CHORUS 1
Wait love, wait love
Wait for me, wait for me
Don’t you
Wait love, wait love
Wait for me, wait for me

VERSE 2
The power of the love she holds within the hate
It’s got the power to kill, the power to create
And one act one instant could seal a fate
A decision she did or did not make
A message from the deep a visceral call
A meaning conveyed with no words at all
No thoughts only shadows looming tall
Moving through the body pushing up against the walls of
Flesh and skin and muscle and bone
A sense of moving through an ocean alone
A darkness so profound
A wire tightly wound
In the absence of sound
We claw for solid ground
We’re moving up and up and up
Til we break the surface
Til the morning sun shines on us again

Don’t you….

CHORUS 2

BRIDGE
She’s flying like a butterfly to the island
She’s flying in the eye of the storm over the ocean
She’s flying like a butterfly to the island
She’s flying in the eye of the storm over the ocean

We’re moving up and up and up
Til we break the surface
Til the morning sun shines on us again

Don’t you …

CHORUS 3 (last one! slows down)
Wait love, wait love
Wait for me, wait for me
Don’t you
Wait love, wait love
Wait for me, please wait….
