I'll Wait If You Go
The future is coming faster than I could ever imagine,
And you are filling out your college applications.
You'll be gone before I can say goodbye, I'll be left here all alone,
But you swore on the weekends you would come home.
I won't interfere, don't let me,
Be the one to cancel your dream.
Wipe the depressing look off your face,
It's nothing to grieve over, I'll be waiting right here in this exact place.
The day you return,
Showing off the diploma you will earn.
I love you enough to set you free,
'Cause I know if you feel the same, you'll come back to me.
College is calling,
Stop your stalling.
Pack your bags and put on a show,
The university will be lucky to have you, so go.
I will wait for you,
If you will go and come back soon.
Make me proud, embrace your dream,
No one is more intelligent than the girl I see.
Opportunity is knocking and I refuse to allow you to let it slip by,
I know you'll shine twice as bright as the stars in the sky.
I'll see you out to your dorm,
Even through a thunderstorm.
I will make sure you get there safe and sound,
And I will wait for you to get back, in this empty town.
You hold the highest grades I've ever seen,
You're going to go far is what I mean.
Better start packing, time is ready to take you away,
Begin your new life on a brand new day.
Capture your smile in my photographic memory,
When you meet and greet all your new friends, don't forget to mention me.
Call me everyday, after every class,
Hearing your voice is my new daily task.
Hold that tear in your eye,
We promised never to say goodbye.
In a few months you will be back on break,
Oh, all the advantages I will take.
College is calling,
Stop your stalling.
Pack your bags and put on a show,
The university will be lucky to have you, so go.
I will wait for you,
If you will go and come back soon.
Make me proud, embrace your dream,
No one is more intelligent than the girl I see.

And I will wait for you to get back, in this empty town.
College is calling,
Stop your stalling.
Pack your bags and put on a show,
The university will be lucky to have you, so go...
I will wait for you,
If you will go and come back soon.
Make me proud, embrace your dream,
No one is more intelligent than the girl I see.
