Wait For Me
The little boy in overalls
Trying to keep up
With the older children
Cry's “ Hey you guys, wait up”
“Wait For Me”
She had just finished high school
And was ready to move on
She tightly hugged her boyfriend
And implored him “while I'm gone”
“Wait For Me”
The soldier kissed his little boy
And told him he must go
He said “take care of mommy
I'll be back before you know”
“Wait For Me”
The gray haired man knelt down and gazed
At the name etched on the stone
My days are without purpose
Now that you've gone on alone
“Wait For Me”
Life's moments are so fleeting
“Wait For Me”
