Lyrics + translation · letras.mus.br

🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • Wait for me to come home
  • Loving can heal
  • Loving can mend your soul
  • And is the only thing

Echo the hook

  • We keep this love in a photograph
  • We make these memories for ourselves
  • Where our eyes are never closing
  • Hearts are never broken
waithomekeep
