Just You Wait by Tallulah Guard Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I spent so long just asking myself, "Is it me?"
So many wasted tears have dried on these cheeks
I wanted to be wanted so I forgot what I need
Wanted to mean something to him, something to her
Lost track of what I mean to me
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know what I want but I know that it isn't this
I don't know what I want but I know I won't expect it
[Chorus]
So stop looking in all the right places
Stop doing whatever you're told
Stop pulling your prettiest faces
Stop buying whatever you're sold
Stop loving whoever will love you
Stop holding whoever will hold
Stop wanting the next and the best and the rest will unfold
Just you wait
[Verse 2]
I thought it was on me when you didn't make me feel quite right
I thought it was all in my head when I couldn't wait for the end of the night
I'd paint myself a picture of how it's supposed to be
Then beat myself up when it wasn't quite real
Sometimes you have to hurt another heart to set yourself free
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know what I want but I know that it isn't this
I don't know what I want but I know I won't expect it
[Chorus]
So stop looking in all the right places
Stop doing whatever you're told
Stop pulling your prettiest faces
Stop buying whatever you're sold
Stop loving whoever will love you
Stop holding whoever will hold
Stop wanting the next and the best and the rest will unfold
Just you wait (x4)
[Bridge]
Stop doubting these doubts you are feeling
Just trust that you know your own mind
Believe it or not you are healing
You don't have to be cruel to be kind
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know what I want but I know I haven't got it yet
If I've learnt anything at all it's that I don't want second best
[Chorus]
So stop looking in all the right places
Stop doing whatever you're told
Stop pulling your prettiest faces
Stop buying whatever you're sold
Stop loving whoever will love you
Stop holding whoever will hold
Stop wanting the next and the best and the rest will unfold
Just you wait
I spent so long just asking myself, "Is it me?"
So many wasted tears have dried on these cheeks
I wanted to be wanted so I forgot what I need
Wanted to mean something to him, something to her
Lost track of what I mean to me
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know what I want but I know that it isn't this
I don't know what I want but I know I won't expect it
[Chorus]
So stop looking in all the right places
Stop doing whatever you're told
Stop pulling your prettiest faces
Stop buying whatever you're sold
Stop loving whoever will love you
Stop holding whoever will hold
Stop wanting the next and the best and the rest will unfold
Just you wait
