"I Will Wait For You" lyrics
(originally from "Les Parapluies de Cherbourg" musical)
If it takes forever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
Till you're back beside me, till I'm holding you
Till I hear you sigh here in my arms
Anywhere you wander, anywhere you go
Every day remember how I love you so
In your heart, believe, what in my heart, I know
That forevermore I will wait for you
The clock will tick away the hours one by one
Then the time will come when all the waiting's done
The time when you return and find me here and run
Straight to my waiting arms
Till you're here beside me, till I'm touching you
And forevermore I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
Till you're back beside me, till I'm holding you
Till I hear you sigh here in my arms
Anywhere you wander, anywhere you go
Every day remember how I love you so
In your heart, believe, what in my heart, I know
That forevermore I will wait for you
The clock will tick away the hours one by one
Then the time will come when all the waiting's done
The time when you return and find me here and run
Straight to my waiting arms
Till you're here beside me, till I'm touching you
And forevermore I will wait for you
