for You i'd wait

this song was reportedly written by coldplay for johnny cash..but then he passed away. this song can be interpreted several ways lah, but to me i see the 'you' in question as god. no frills here on this track, just the basic guitar jangling away...something like the way johnny cash would've sung it.

yes, lord, "For you i'd wait til kingdom come. Until my day, my day is done. And say you'll come and set me free. Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me."

philippians 1:23. but for You i'd wait, lord, for You i'd wait.

'Til Kingdom Come
by COLDPLAY

Still my heart and hold my tongue
I feel my time, my time has come
Let me in, unlock the door
I never felt this way before

And the wheels just keep on turning
The drummer begins to drum
I don't know which way i'm going
I don't know which way i've come

Hold my head inside your hands
I need someone who understands
I need someone, someone who hears
For you i've waited all these years

For you i'd wait til kingdom come
Until my day, my day is done
And say you'll come and set me free
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me

In your tears and in your blood
In your fire and in your flood
I hear you laugh, I heard you sing
I wouldn't change a single thing

And the wheels just keep on turning
The drummers begin to drum
I don't know which way i'm going
I don't know what i've become

For you i'd wait til kingdom come
Until my days, my days are done
Say you'll come and set me free
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me
