Lyrics for Song: Waiting in the Wings
Lyrics for Album: Faith In You [Capitol] [2000]
Jimmy was a shadow the youngest of three boys
How he longed to feel the light
Jimmy's older brothers sure could make some noise
So he became the quiet type
But deep inside he had some powerful dreams
He'd think about them then he'd smile.
Chorus:
And he was gone, gone, to somewhere far beyond
Where he was strong, strong, shining in the sun
They say that someday the meekest heart will sing
There was Jimmy waiting in the wings.
Susie was a waitress morning, noon and night
But she never did complain
Jimmy'd stopped for lunch there at least a thousand times
But one Monday something changed
She leaned across him with some chocolate pie
Then he looked into her eyes.
Chorus:
And he was gone, gone, to somewhere far beyond
His heart beat strong strong he knew she was the one
They say that someday the meekest heart will sing
Love found Jimmy waiting in the wings.
And when he held her for the very first time
He found the one thing he'd been missing all his life.
Chorus:
And they were gone, gone, to somewhere far beyond
Their love was strong strong two hearts beat as one
He stood beside her and she put on his ring
And when she smiled how his heart did sing.
They say that someday the meekest heart will sing
So remember if you're waiting in the wings...

Waiting in the Wings
Steve Wariner's 'Waiting in the Wings' serves as a poignant centerpiece on his 2000 album 'Faith In You,' exemplifying his signature blend of country and gospel influences. Recorded during a period where Wariner was refining his vocal delivery to bridge the gap between traditional country storytelling and spiritual resonance, the track showcases his ability to convey deep emotion through subtle dynamics rather than overt power. The song reflects themes of anticipation and faith, characteristic of his work in the early 2000s when he sought to expand his audience beyond the traditional country market. As part of his broader discography, this recording stands as a testament to his commitment to authentic expression, capturing a moment of quiet hope that resonated with listeners seeking both musical and spiritual comfort. |
