Lyrics for Wait as interpreted by bmcnich

Wait Lyrics
Feel I’m on the verge of some great truth
Where I’m finally in my place
But I’m fumbling still full proof
And it’s cluttering my space
Casting shadows on my face

Though I have the strength to move a hill
I can hardly leave my room
So I sit perfectly still
And I’ll listen for a tune
While my mind is on the moon

And If I stumble, and if I stall
And if I slip now, and if I should fall
And if I can’t be, all that I could be
Will you? Will you wait for me?

Cause everywhere I seem to be
I am only passing through
I dream these days are about the sea
I always wake up feeling blue
Wishing I could dream of you

So if I stumble, and If I fall
And if I slip now, and loose it all
And if I can’t be, all that I could be
Will you? Will you wait for me?

And wait for me
And wait for me
And wait for me
Won’t you wait for me?

And wait for me
Please wait for me
Please wait for me
Won’t wait for me

And wait for me
Please wait for me
Please wait for me
Won’t you wait for me?

And wait for me
Please wait for me
Please wait for me
Won’t you wait for me?

And wait for me
Please wait for me
Please wait for me
Won’t you wait for me?

Please wait for me
Please wait for me
Please wait for me
Won’t you wait for me?

just like all of alexi's songs, this is both extremely calming and reassuring

for me i think that this is about his head being neither here nor there or more to the point, in both places simultaneously - hes 'on the verge of some great trail' yet he 'can hardly leave [his] room' ..and although not asking for help ..for directions out of this dilemma, hes simply asking for reassurance that the people (or girl?) will still be by him after everthing blows over

..but thats just my interpretation, its probably wrong

If you would have asked me 7 months ago , I would've agreed with that interpretation. But after I lost my love and best friend, I found that this song had much deeper meaning. In fact I listened to it several times a day to help say what I was feeling. I think overall, he's asking if I mess up here, in this life--do something stupid or something shameful,("if I stumble/fall") Will you still wait for me in the next life.
He also talks about dreaming about the sea and waking up feeling blue, cause he wishes he could dream of "you". You want to stay connected, even talk to the one you've lost. When you dream of that person, it's bittersweet, but you're gald you saw them again. And when you don't dream about them its upsetting...it definitely makes you blue.

i think that this song is very special in more than one way. will you wait for me? when i listen this words i translate to: do you really love me? if i stumble, if i fall, if i can't be all that i could be? will you love me anyway? will you be next to me if i fall? if you will, you love me.
i am from argentina, and i understand english, but the meaning in each languague could be different.

The part where he;s inging th "wait for me"
again and again, I can feel so much emotion on it...it's like he is crying while he is singing those lines.

Whenever I listen to that part, I feel like I was telling it to someone who is now far from me, and sometimes like someone is going to left me, and I'm telling please wait for me and don't leve me here all "alone".

I want to cry!
