Bon Iver - If Only I Could Wait Lyrics



Bon Iver - If Only I Could Wait Lyrics
Official




[ Featuring Danielle Haim ]

If only I could wait
+
If only I could wait
+
If only I could wait
+
But before me is a ways out
+
Can I live inside this state?
+
Where the summers are charades now
+
Can I incur the weight?
+
Am I really this afraid now?
+
For what's at stake
+
Oh, babe
+
I'll take the pain
+
If only you could wait
+
I ain't up at your pace yet
+
I take the steps to stage
+
And they hit me with the rays now
+
But if I could only pray
+
In the blaze of a northern bar
+
I'd bend another straight
+
We'll decay in other ways now
+
If only you could wait (I, I know that it's hard)
+
Or is it folded either way now? (To keep holding)
+
The common leads away (keep holding strong)
+
But is it only years away now? (Keep holding on)
+
I have come to learn replace (I, I know that it's best)
+
And I resemble other traits of the Lord (To keep going)
+
I have rendered other fates (these memories hold)
+
And I've been prowling on the brakes now (these memories fade)
+
But what a taste
+
Oh, babe
+
In every way
+
Not for the freight
+
I'm best alone
+
In high ways
+
