Waiting For The Sun Lyrics

this will be an uncertain
time for us my love
I can hear the echo
of your voice in my head
singing my love

I can see your face there
in my hands my love
I have been blessed by your grace
and care my love
singing my love

Chorus:
there's a place for us
sitting here waiting for the sun
and it calls me back
into the safe arms that I know

for every step you're further
away from me my love
I grow more unsteady on my feet my love
singing my love

Chorusx2

for every step you're further
away from me my love
I grow more unsteady on my feet

Chorus

now we're waiting for the sun
yeah we're waiting for the sun

This song is about a long distance relationship ("Every step you're further away from me"). He doesn't feel as confident ("I grow more unsteady on my feet") when they're apart. He expressed his love for her ("I have been blessed by your grace and care") and he can't wait until he can be with her again ("it calls me back to the safe arms that I know"). I interprete "There's a place for us sitting here waiting for the sun" as the two of them waiting to be with each other again. The sun being a place of light and warmth, which is metaphorical of the warmth and love of being together.

Powderfinger's song "My Happiness" is also about a long distance relationship, but instead of waiting to be together, it's about when they get to reunite again then separate once more.

ok for me the meanings pretty simple. he doesnt get 2 spend much time with his woman. and when hes away from her (on tour) it tires him "I grow more unsteady on my feet" and in the song hes with his bitch waiting for the sun to rise and hes like happy and stuff. comprende?
