Anticipation

By Roberta Lea

For Stephanie Cheng Hin Mee

Intro

​

Nine to ten months of anticipation, sparking the flames of an internal conversation

​

Verse 1

​

Like a movie, overwhelming, now expecting, sitting on the edge

​

Stressin, cryin, travel, timing, underlying, feeling so intense

​

Searching for a point of peace, new to him, he's new to me

​

Are we ready? Say it on three

​

1...2...3...

​

Chorus

​

Nine to ten months of anticipation

Sparking the flames of an internal conversation

Time for preparation, self evaluation

For healthy new relation

Nine to ten months

​

Verse 2

​

Unexpected, not rejected, world infected, looking like the end

​

Feeling rested, feelings tested, house arrested, I just need a friend

​

Swimming inside my ocean, waves of a new emotion

​

Fear, but I'll make sure I'm ready for you dear

​

Chorus 

​

Nine to ten months of anticipation

Sparking the flames of an internal conversation

Time for preparation, self evaluation

For healthy new relation

Nine to ten months

​

Bridge

​

Rollercoaster

Sometimes life don't work out the way it's supposed to

But then it does

From duo to trio, off in the sunset we go

Say it on three, you ready?

1...2...3...yes!

​

Nine to ten months

Nine to ten months

1...2...3...yes!

​

Chorus

​

Nine to ten months of anticipation (I'll make sure I'm ready for you dear)

Sparking the flames of an internal conversation

Time for preparation (ready), self evaluation (so ready)

For healthy new relation

Nine to ten months

​

Nine to ten months

Nine to ten months
