这首《Wait For You》是Elliott Yamin首张专辑《Elliott Yamin》中的曲目。
Elliott Yamin略显沙哑低沉的声音使这首歌听起来很亲切,很好地诠释了歌中感情的真挚。
Elliott Yamin出生在加州的洛杉矶,母亲以前是专业歌手,Yamin十几岁唱卡拉OK时首次发现了自己的声乐天分。虽然他没有受过声乐方面的专业训练,但他在 业余时间在当地的爵士乐队中担任主唱,并开始接触Stevie Wonder、Whitney Houston和Donny Hathaway等人的音乐,这些人对他的乐风影响较大。Yamin在高二辍学后就使用昵称E-Dub在当地的R&B广播电台Foot Locker工作。之后他于2006年参加“美国偶像”,并获得该届大赛的季军。这张《Elliott Yamin》是他的首张个人专辑,专辑首周销售量就达到9万,在美国Billboard 200排名第三位。截止到 2007年10月12日,这张专辑已经达到了黄金销量。
Yamin的右耳失去了90%的听力,而且在16岁时被确诊为I型糖尿病,他平日需要戴胰岛素泵以应付自己的糖尿病。成名后Yamin成为了青少年糖尿病研究基金会(JDRF)等组织的代言人,并多次参加各个与糖尿病相关的慈善活动。
Wait for You
Elliott Yamin
I never felt nothing in the world like this before
Now I'm missing you and I'm wishing you would come back through my door
Why did you have to go?
You could have let me know
So now I'm all alone
Girl you could have stayed
But you wouldn't give me a chance
If you are not around it's a little bit more then I can stand
And all my tears stay keep running down my face
Why did you turn away?
So why does your pride make you run and hide?
Are you that afraid of me?
But I know it's a lie what you keep inside
This is not how you wanted to be
So baby I will wait for you
Cause I don't know what else I can do
Don't tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life
Baby I will wait for you
If you think I'm fine it just ain't true
I really need you in my life
No matter what I have to do
I'll wait for you
It's been a long time since you called me
(did you forget about me)
You got me feeling crazy (crazy)
How can you walk away
Everything stays the same
I just can't do it baby
What will it take to make you come back
Girl I told you what it is and it just ain't like that girl
Why can't you look at me, you are still in love with me
Don't leave me crying.
Baby why can't we just start over again
Get it back to the way it was
If you give me a chance I can love you right
But you are telling me it won't be enough
So baby I will wait for you
Cause I don't know what else I can do
Don't tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life
Baby I will wait for you
If you think I'm fine it just ain't true
I really need you in my life
No matter what I have to do
I'll wait for you
So why does you pride make you run and hide
Are you that afriad of me?
But I know it's a lie what you are keeping inside
That's not how you wanted to be
Baby I will wait for you
Baby I will wait for you
If it's the last thing I do
Baby I will wait for you
Cause I don't know what else I can do
Don't tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life
Baby I will wait for you
you think I'm fine it just ain't true
I really need you in my life
No matter what I have to do
I'll wait for you
I'll be waiting
在这世上没有什么事比这件事让我感受深刻
现在我正在思念你,祈祷你能推开门回到我身边
为什么你非要离开我?
你应该让我知道
现在只剩下孤孤单单的我
你应该留在我身边
但是你没有给我机会
我不能忍受你不在我身边
我的眼泪不停的流过脸颊
为什么你走了?
为何自尊使你跑掉、躲藏
你是不是害怕面对我?
但是我知道那只是谎言,到底有什么藏在你的内心深处?
这一定不是你想要的
所以宝贝我会等你
因为我也不知道我还能做些什么
不要告诉我我已经没有时间了
即使是用尽我的余生
宝贝我会等着你
如果你认为现在我很好那你就大错特错了
我的生命中不能没有你
无论我需要做什么我都会等着你回来
距离上次你给我电话已经过了很长时间了
是不是你已经忘了我
你令我快要发疯了
你怎么能一走了之呢
一切没有改变
只是我已无能为力
做些什么才能使你回到我身边
我曾告诉过你我们会怎样,但绝不是像这样
为什么不看我,你还一直爱着我
不要留下我独自哭泣
宝贝我们为什么不能重新开始呢
回到以前在一起时的生活
如果你能给我一次机会,我会真心去爱你
可是你告诉我这一些还不够
所以宝贝我会等你
因为我也不知道还能做些什么
不要告诉我我已经没有时间
即使用尽我的余生
宝贝我会等你回来
如果你认为我现在很好那你就错了
我的生命中不能没有你
无论要付出什么代价我都会等你回到我身边
为何自尊使你跑掉、躲藏
你是不是畏惧我
但是我想这只是谎言,你的内心到底藏了些什么?
这不是你想要的
宝贝我会等你
宝贝我会等你
即使这是我做的最后一件事
宝贝我会等你回来
因为我也不知道自己还能做些什么
不要告诉我我已经没有时间了
即使耗尽我的余生
宝贝我都要等你回来
你认为我现在很好,你错了
我的生命中不能没有你
无论付出什么代价,我都会等你
我会一直等下去
