Lyrics
Plastic chairs in a row The clock on the wall goes slow A cup of tea gone cold in my hand Waiting for someone to say Everything is going to be okay Wait with me, wait with me The night is long but it will end Wait with me, wait with me Soft light, a hand to hold, a friend A stranger shares a blanket A nurse smiles on her way past The vending machine hums a lullaby We do not need to talk We are all just hoping, side by side Wait with me, wait with me The night is long but it will end Wait with me, wait with me Soft light, a hand to hold, a friend Morning is coming down the hall Quiet footsteps, quiet call Breathe in slow, breathe out slow Good news is on its way, I know Wait with me, wait with me The night is long but it will end Wait with me, wait with me Soft light, a hand to hold, a friend Wait with me Wait with me
