Lyrics

Intro

(oh-oh, oh-oh)

Verse

Papers stacked high on the kitchen table

Months turn to years in the quiet ache

Dreams in a suitcase, heart on the line

Holding space for a face I’ve never seen

Pre-chorus

Every night I whisper to the dark

Come on home, come on home

Chorus

Worth the wait, worth the wait

Every mile, every late

Worth the wait, worth the wait

You were always worth the wait

(da da da, da da da)

Verse

Phone rings at midnight, voice on the line

Sudden yes after all that time

Suitcase ready, ticket in hand

Running toward the life I planned

Pre-chorus

Every night I whispered to the dark

Come on home, come on home

Chorus

Worth the wait, worth the wait

Every mile, every late

Worth the wait, worth the wait

You were always worth the wait

(da da da, da da da)

Bridge

Tiny hands reach up, eyes meet mine

All the empty filled in one small sign

No more counting days or praying for a sign

You’re here, you’re real, and you are mine

Chorus

Worth the wait, worth the wait

Every mile, every late

Worth the wait, worth the wait

You were always worth the wait

(da da da, da da da)

(oh-oh, oh-oh)
