"I Will Wait"
Well, I came home
Like a stone
And I fell heavy into your arms
These days of dust
Which we've known
Will blow away with this new sun
But I'll kneel down,
Wait for now
And I'll kneel down,
Know my ground
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
So break my step
And relent
Well, you forgave and I won't forget
Know what we've seen
And him with less
Now in some way shake the excess
'Cause I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
Now I'll be bold
As well as strong
And use my head alongside my heart
So tame my flesh
And fix my eyes
A tethered mind freed from the lies
And I'll kneel down,
Wait for now
I'll kneel down,
Know my ground
Raise my hands
Paint my spirit gold
And bow my head
Keep my heart slow
'Cause I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
Like a stone
And I fell heavy into your arms
These days of dust
Which we've known
Will blow away with this new sun
But I'll kneel down,
Wait for now
And I'll kneel down,
Know my ground
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
So break my step
And relent
Well, you forgave and I won't forget
Know what we've seen
And him with less
Now in some way shake the excess
'Cause I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
Now I'll be bold
As well as strong
And use my head alongside my heart
So tame my flesh
And fix my eyes
A tethered mind freed from the lies
And I'll kneel down,
Wait for now
I'll kneel down,
Know my ground
Raise my hands
Paint my spirit gold
And bow my head
Keep my heart slow
'Cause I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI listen to this song on repeat, the words really strike a chord for me too. I love Mumford so hard!
ReplyDeleteSame here! I put it on repeat while driving (alone) and sing my heart out! I play it on my guitar and if I'm home alone, I belt it out. I'm sure I sound horrible, but it feels so good to let it out :) I've been trying to convince DH to take me to a Mumford & Sons concert for a few weeks now. It would be a no-brainer, but their tour schedule doesn't get close to the east coast.
DeleteI could have written that! My fave place is also the car - nice and loud while I belt it out! I'm jealous of your guitar skills though :) I was so keen on getting tickets to see them in concert but the stupid show was sold out ridiculously fast! Damn them for getting so popular ;)
DeleteDoesn't it feel so good to belt it out?! LOL
DeleteI don't even know if there are tickets available for any of their shows, but I'm trying to convince DH that it'd be worth the very long trip. They are the best!! I have been listening to both their albums exclusively and nonstop ever since I "discovered" them. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE every song!
