Hold me while you wait (2019) (video)

G ~

G Bm

1. I'm waiting up, saving all my precious time,

C - G

losing light, I'm missing my same old us.

Bm

Before we learned our truth too late,

C

resigned to fate, fading away.

Em G

So tell me, can you turn around ?

D

I need someone to tear me down.

Em G - D

Oh, tell me, can you turn around ? But either way.

G - B7

Hold me while you wait, I wish that I was good enough,

Em D

if only I could wake you up, my love, my love, my love, my love !

- G

Won't you stay a while ?

G Bm

2. Tell me more, tell me something I don't know.

C

Did we come close to having it all ?

Em G - D

If you're gonna waste my time, let's waste it right.

G - B7

Hold me while you wait, I wish that I was good enough,

Em D

if only I could wake you up, my love, my love, my love, my love !

Won't you stay a while ?

G - Bm

I wish you cared a little more, I wish you'd told me this before,

Em D

My love, my love, my love, my love ! Won't you stay a while ?

C D

+ This is you, this is me, this is all we need.

Em G

Is it true ? My faith is shaken, but I still believe.

C D

This is you, this is me, this is all we need.

Em

So won't you stay a while ?

+ CHORUS + G

- Bm - Em

+ Stay a while, stay a while !

D - G

My love, my love, my love, won't you stay a while ?

G Bm

3. I'm waiting up, saving all my precious time,

C - G

losing light, I'm missing my same old us.

Bm

Before we learned our truth too late,

C

resigned to fate, fading away ....
