Lyrics
Wait for Me Yves Stilmant © 2025
[Verse 1]
I still hear your tags when the floorboards creak
Feel your head on my knee when I try to sleep
Your bowl's still sittin' by the kitchen light
And I still say your name when I pray at night
[Pre-Chorus]
They say you're runnin' where the rivers shine
But you're still here in this heart of mine
[Chorus]
Wait for me at the gate
Where the grass rolls on and the time won't fade
Go chase the wind, but don't stray far
Save me a spot where all the good dogs are
When my boots stop walkin' and I'm finally free
You'll come runnin'--just wait for me
[Verse 2]
I see your eyes in the sunset gold
Feel your love when the nights get cold
You were more than a pet, you were my best friend
And I'd give anything to see you again
[Pre-Chorus]
Some days I smile, but most I ache
You left a hole that no one can take
[Chorus]
Wait for me at the gate
Where the grass rolls on and the time won't fade
Go chase the wind, but don't stray far
Save me a spot where all the good dogs are
When my boots stop walkin' and I'm finally free
You'll come runnin'--just wait for me
[Bridge]
No more fences, no more pain
We'll play like we did in the good old days
And I'll throw that ball through the sky so blue
Right back to forever--me and you
[Final Chorus]
Wait for me at the gate
Where the grass rolls on and the time won't fade
Go chase the wind, but don't stray far
Save me a spot where all the good dogs are
When the angels call and my soul runs free
You'll be there waitin'--just wait for me
[Outro]
Yeah, wait for me...
At the gate where you'll always be
