I survive the cold on your promises
frozen in a life so temporary
trapped in the darkness of an endless night
living for the day when you'll be mine
you promised
the door would open, open again
you promised
i would hold you once again
and every time the phone rings i run just to check
but it's never been you and i'm starting to suspect
That i wait in vain
oh i wait in vain
oh i wait in vain
It's just one small step and i'm out of the shadow
but i can't escape your indifference
i'm gripped by indecision and paralyzed by pride
hesitating till the day you'll be by my side
you promised
i would feel your soft kiss again
you promised
i would hear you whisper again
and every day i'm standing, just standing at your door
i can't even find the strength to hate you anymore
Wait in vain
oh i wait in vain
don't make me wait in vain
no no
You promised the door would open again
you promised i would hold you, hold you again
and in the crowd i always think i see you up ahead
when i call out your name it's someone else instead
Wait in vain
oh i wait in vain
oh i wait in vain
Please don't make me wait in vain
oh i wait in vain
wait in vain
