Temper Trap, The - I'm Gonna Wait Lyrics
Way down in a not so distant place
Your ghost is lingering
Still frames remembering the way we were
Way down see reflections in the well
A distant haunting bell
Helpless, prayers cannot speed the time
Nor ever change the mind
Left to our wrong device we set this bridge alive
One day, you may not know it yet
This you won't forget
I was the one who came running back again
[Hook x2:]
I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I wanna
I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I wanna
I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait for you
My arms are reaching out for you
Each time I think of you
Flood gates open and I'm left drowning
And although, it lingers in my sleep
May you return to me
Not to possess but to hold you in my keep
[Hook x2]
And so the last page shall remain
Empty until you write the rest
Yes, some may say that I'm a fool
A fool for waiting for you
[Hook x2]
I'll be your fool, a fool who waited for you
When you come falling, I'll be here still waiting for you

Dont loose your hope and move on to your life
Go have some new friends that will cherish your life and be love
Walk slowly whenever you meet the sunrise

Lily

This song makes me so emocional. My boyfriend will leave my city in September. He is gonna live in another state.
THIS SONG IS COMPLETE SERENITY AND JUST SO FUCKING AMAZING! WALKING IN SEATTLE ON A CLOUDY DAY LISTENING TO THIS OMG
Looks like 2016 Coachella was a bust. That's ok. There's always 2017 right... wait. Nooo, noooo, no fucking way! Los Angles Fonda Theatre. *I WILL BE THERE!* Yall don't know how long I waited for this shit! Actually you might, just look at the previous comments from years ago XD

Great song!!
Every time I here this song I always think of the people that have passed on
Futuristic Marketing 143
wow! great
What are the string instruments used in this? (Sorry, I'm musically dense, but I love that subtle sound in the background)
I'm sure that they are electronic. It could also be a guitar. But if it would be real strings, you would use a violin or maybe a cello.
(sorry for my bad english, I'm german)
+Gemma Pettersen Its probably guitar bcoz temper usualy use delay guitar #like u2# with electronic ofcourse.. but they have different sound
On guitar: Delay + reverb = ambient swells
3:07 <3
what an beautiful song with real emotions for us emotional people this is life! :-)
BetterCall Zhann (for us emotional people) dang thats does define us
You used an wrong
Apparently this song is about someone who has lost a loved one was a big believer in god and heaven but they wasn't and now they've lost that person they want to believe but they're still in two minds if it exists or not so they are gonna wait out of hope until the person they lost comes to them in a spiritual manner and proves there is a god and heaven.

Nice stuff but u can't beat Bon iver in voice
+cessationem Bon Iver and James Vincent Mcmorrow are the ultimate angels of music.
This is absolutely gorgeous, and his voice....perfect.
Looks like I'm waiting another year till Coachella 2016 or something on the West Coast USA to see you guys. 5 years and counting. Its funny cause I've waited since the end of middle school, threw high school, and now college to see you guys. The new album is in the works and if it releases in the Spring like the last one, the band lined up perfectly to have Golden Voice contact you guys or vise verse.
Powerful temper trap
So uh I'm back. AGAIN! And Coachella 2015 is 5 months away and uh well GET YOUR ASSES HERE! Listen, whether you get here or not I'm always gonna be a fan.
u r probably their #1 fan bro.. seen ur last year post!! how lucky they r, havin a fan like you :)
Such loyalty, 4 thumbs up
lol I don't go on their facebook page or Twitter etc. So I post my ridiculous stuff here on youTube XD But yeah I love these guys. in fact I came back here to post something...
This song describes my life - my love leaving to go overseas :'(
Can't help but harmonize to this song when I'm singing along. :)
No! Why didn't you come to Coachella Fest 2014! We let you guys slide last year because you went to Rockness BUT this year of Coachella Fest too. :( Ok story time, It was 2010 Coachella Fest. While waiting for Bassnector show to start we looked for new cool bands and we stumble across a new Australian band just starting their show. Long story short ever since that faithful day in 2010 my friends and MANY other people have fallen in love with your music. Obviously ,still to this day, my friends and i listen and enjoy your music and would appreciate it if you guys could come 2015. Thank you in advance if you come. Better yet THANK YOU if you even read this far into my lesser, post.
-Zelta Delta

I was enjoying the ride and then 1:15 came along...and I dropped my jaw. Ugh! You have me now. I'm hooked.

Paredes de Coura! It was great! :)
So good I might die.

perfection :D <3333333333333
no :'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''(
how can we not love your music its great love it love all ur tracks can't express the love in words :D
I saw you in Portugal for the first time and now I'm completely in love with your songs! Your my favourite band ever. Thanks for the most amazing show ever (:
One of the most incredible song.. I'm gonna wait for you guys in Jakarta. Definitely won't miss the show this time:)
Great Song!! Me and my bro saw you guys live in Vancouver Canada and it was the best outdoor concert i've ever been too (except for the lack of alcohol haha), great sound and very good performance! I just couldn't believe how few people were there!! Keep up the great work guys!!
I've been to a number of live gigs (both huge and local artists) and that was quite possibly one of the greatest live performances I've seen. It stuck with me more than the following Coldplay act (Brisbane) afterwards. YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!
Saw you play in Brisbane before Coldplay. You guys were so good and just so amazing!
Brasil love´s temper trap!
catching you guys tomorrow in Melbourne!!! x
Are you handing out free tickets? I havent been yet but id love to go! :D
I was there too :) You guys are amazing!
You guys crushed it at the HOB in Houston last Friday. INCREDIBLE live show
Indonesia! hometown, Dougy!
COME TO MALAYSIA!!!
Hell yea!!! Saw you guys on Friday in Houston and it was AMAZING!!!
AMAZING!
Next year. Can't wait.
I'm seeing yall on friday!! super excited!
i get to see you in two weeks at coldplay in auckland!
if you guys are ever in minneapolis, minnesota i would be honored if i could open for you. keep it in mind, been rooting for you since day one
I really want to let you guys know that I really admire you guys and this album. When everyone wanted more Sweet Disposition stuff, you guys moved right on like artists should and made the kind of music you were drawn to. You didn't just make what the fans wanted, but you pushed them into different territories and showcased some new sounds. Job very well done indeed!
Cant to see them at the fillmore next Saturday :D
Ohhh My Sweet Lord What a Beautiful Song
