Wait!

Elisa Ashley
Please
I wasn't finished
I still have things to say to you
To make you believe me

Stop!
Please
Don't leave without hearing me out
I need you.

Hang on
Please
Something isn't right and I need to talk about it
Before you run away

I need you to hear the beat of my heart
I need you to see the dreams in my mind
I need you to feel the hope in my thinking
I need you to be the man of my dreams
I need you to be
I need you

with me.

Wait!

You're always there when I need you
You're always here when I hurt
You're always first to share in my joy
You're the first to sort through my confusion
And shed light in my darkened mind.
You're the first
You're my only.

Wait!
I love you so much
When I'm with you the sun is shining
Even in a downpour
When I'm with you my heart is singing
Even when there is nothing going on
When I'm with you I can smell you
I can feel your body heat
I let you envelop me and you're with me always.
I love you.
Please wait.
