Some people hold the belief that love is a waiting game. Yet, waiting for love to come can be tiring at times. To many, the waiting can become too long that it can sometimes feel like one is waiting in vain. Seasons come and go and still, when we look around, we find ourselves all alone.
Many times I wished you were here
Through the velvet shadows of my dreams
Many times I wshed you were near
Through the darkness as it came but it seems
That you, you never said what I needed to hear
During those waiting years, we long for three words to be spoken to us. Words that we don’t just want to hear but to see them being shared. For in that shared silence, we often find the beauty and the wonder of being alive.
Just tell me you love me
Whisper words I so long to hear
Let this time not be borrowed
Let it be ours to share
The love we’ve been looking for will come at the appointed time. Thus, we learn to be patient which is what true love needs for it to become everlasting. It might take years, even decades, but when love finally finds her way to us, she brings with her the promise of a new and different world, one that we have never dreamed of.
Quietly I waited
For the memory borne of our first kiss
Patiently I waited
For the moment you would take me to a world
That I, I’ve never seen that world before
Have you been waiting for love for so long? Take a cue from England Dan and John Ford Coley’s “Just Tell Me You Love Me”. Please click here:
Soft rock duo England Dan and John Ford Coley sang and recorded “Just Tell Me You Love Me” in late 1980 as part of the album carrying the same title. The song is also the soundtrack of the movie having the same title which featured several other songs from the prolific duo, including “I’m Going to Find Tomorrow” and “Life is Beautiful”.
The movie’s tracks also featured an instrumental version of the song “Just Tell Me You Love Me”.
