I Can Wait

Melissa Etheridge · 4th Street Feeling [2012]

I know that you're trembling

Despite your disguise

Your world is on fire I can see it in your eyes

Those spirits are hungry oh they feast on your fear

They're howling and screaming I can feel them so near

I will stay right here



I can wait, I won't change

I won't fade from the dark and strange

Feel the moon get to know the stars

I know it's not easy honey



It can seem so hard when your demons have found you

Oh they drag you through hell

Don't pay your attention to the stories they tell

Don't get me wrong now honey, I know it's severe

Just give me a smile now baby let me whisper in your ear

I will stay right here



I can wait, I won't change

I won't fade from the dark and strange

Feel the moon get to know the stars

I know it's not easy honey



You will find what you are looking for

And this work is never done

There are no judgments only open doors

The choice is yours

You can't get it wrong, no.



I can wait oh yeah.

I will stay right here



I can wait, I won't change

I won't fade from the dark and strange

Feel the moon get to know the stars

I know it's not easy honey



Oh but I can wait, I can wait.

I will stay right here.
