about
This song goes out to you folks out there doing overtime at work, going on business trips, or travelling abroad, leaving the ones you love the most for an extended amount of time. Remember to stay committed, take care of yourselves, and hang tight until you're reunited.
lyrics
[Verse 1]
Gotta go and get my stuff together
I'm off to better both our lives
Please be strong, dress appropriate for the weather
And try not to keep track of time
Though I'm gone you will see
The blessings before you are products of me
And my return is merely
A completion of our destiny, but 'til then
[Chorus]
Will you
wait for me?
I'm leaving
It's been too long
I'm on my way home
I'd seek
Every means
Drive over
The limits of speed
To reach you back home
[Verse 2]
In my mind are remnants of beauty
Your face engulfs my memories
The hardest part of facing these obligations
Is knowing it's not up to me
I'd walk through all treacherous paths
For our future and hope that they'd take pride in their past
It's been awhile since I've been gone
I know I've been away too long (too long)
But tell me, tell me, tell me baby
[Chorus]
Will you
wait for me?
I'm leaving
It's been too long
I'm on my way home
I'd seek
Every means
Drive over
The limits of speed
To reach you back home
[Collision]
Please,
(Will you)
Oh baby would you wait?
(For me)
I'm 'bout to leave this place?
(Leaving)
It's been way too long
(Too long)
I'm on my way home
(I'd seek)
Ooh girl by any means
('vry means)
I will drive over
(Over)
The limits of speed just to see you once again
[Bridge]
Nothing can
Come between
You and me
Eternally
Love is all
That we know
Count on me
To be home
I'm gonna come home
