I Just Wait Lyrics

Paloma Faith I Just Wait lyrics

Through the smoke from my cigarette,

I see you clearly, jump down off the step.

The twinkling in your eyes makes me wonder if Im dead or alive,

And I, I just wait.


How many clothes you need me to leave you?

I feel like I leave em all the time.

Spending days together, I just,

Cant help wondering when youll be mine.


If I could hold your hand, yes I would,

Be with you every day, if I could.

But my lips are sealed, like they should,

But tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, Im waiting.


Behind my smile lies, uncertainty.

If you choose a girl, will she be me?

I try to keep my composure today,

If I wish too hard, though you might wish away.

So I, I just wait.


How many clothes you need me to leave you?

I feel like I leave em all the time.

Spending days together, I just,

Cant help wondering when youll be mine.


If I could, hold your hand, yes I would,

Be with you every day if I could.

But my lips are sealed like they should,

But tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, Im waiting.


I hide my face in shadows,

So you wont disturb my dreams.

I look on you, from a far point,

Were beautiful it seems.


But I inch a little closer,

And its all I want to tread.

You disintegrate before me,

And from my lovely sleep, I wake.


If I could hold your hand, baby you know that I would,

If I could be with you, every day, I could.

But my lips are sealed, I wont say a word,

Cause time, time, time is ticking away.


When you gona open up your eyes and see,

That you and I could always be.

Put your palm into mine,

And stop wasting time.


My heart is breaking, without you,

I dont wana live another day.

And tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, Im waiting.
