"Waiting For You" is the debut single of british artist Jake Flynn featuring the Pop british artist, Raven J. The single was released in February through Black Tie Productions.
Recording:
Jake wrote this song in January. At that time he didn't know if he was going to release it someday but after signing with Black Tie Productions he decided to release it as his first single. The recording took place in Jake's studios (located in his house, in London).
About the Song:
"This song is one of the best I ever wrote, I really like this. It's very emotional and sad because it tells the story (in first-person) of somebody who lost the person he loves and he isn't ready to face ahead his life alone." - Jake Flynn.
Lyrics:
I'm standing here like a stone
Facing ahead a life alone
Here it's dark and cold
But nothing else matters without you, my love
Tried to get thoughts from your head
Felt there was nothing else in life
You changed my world like no one else
Let me get into your warm eyes again
Years ago,
I saw the light shining throw your eyes
They were my endless guide
Didn’t need anything but you
And now, alone I stand
Waiting for a second chance
Pre-Chorous:
Can not hold you in my arms anymore
Forever I will remember you, my love
Can not keep you by my side, no more
Forever and ever I will miss you, my love
Chorous 1:
I just want to hear your voice
I just want to feel you close
I just want to see your eyes, again
Chorous 2:
Please come back
I’m waiting for you
Please come back
I’ll be here for you
Just because you are the reason why I breathe
And the light that illuminates my heart
I don’t care, I don’t mind what happens to me
As long as you’re by my side, then I am free
Pre-Chorous:
Can not hold you in my arms anymore
Forever I will remember you, my love
Can not keep you by my side, no more
Forever and ever I will miss you, my love
Chorous 1:
I just want to hear your voice
I just want to feel you close
I just want to see your eyes, again
Chorous 2:
Please come back
I’m waiting for you
Please come back
I’ll be here for you
With tears in my eyes
In the arms of sadness
I wish to sleep forever
'Cause you’re not here...

Hayden: Nice song there Jake, well I like half of the song that doesn't have Raven's vocals on it but good song for a debut. |
