"Wait" is a song by Kylie Minogue from the Sleepwalker EP, which was released in September 2014. The song was written by Peter Wade Keusch, Fernando Garibay and Amanda Warner, while production was handled by Garibay. The song appears as the second track on the EP.

Background and release

"Wait" first made an appearance during Kylie's Kiss Me Once Tour; the Sleepwalker film was played for the first time before the opening night of the tour in Liverpool, England, on 24 September 2014; the film contained only three of the four songs that were to be released on the EP, omitting "Chasing Ghosts", as this was to be included in the main show as a video interlude. Said short film was then played before every show of the tour.

The EP was released onto SoundCloud on 26 September 2014, before the second show of the tour in Manchester, England, for free download.

Lyrics

Under the sky, not a good night
Safe in the dark clashin’ the light
Uncivilised, unrealised, oh
All that we bring, what do we leave?

Burn hot and bright
Higher and higher you go
Don’t go away

And if we let go don’t you let go
We, we tremble, so be gentle
While we wait so we stay
Every time we let go
Baby, don’t you let go
We’ll still tremble, burn like a limber
While we’ve been here instead

We wait
We’re waitin’
We wait
We’re waitin’
We wait
We’re waitin’
We wait

Never know why stars shine bright
How could a wrong never be right
Clouds may cry as they talk in the nights
Oh, all that lies with the tears we cried

Burn hot and bright
Higher and higher you go
Don’t go away

And if we let go don’t you let go
We, we tremble, so be gentle
While we wait so we stay
Every time we let go
Baby, don’t you let go
We’ll still tremble, burn like a limber
While we’ve been here instead

We wait
We’re waitin’
We wait
We’re waitin’
We wait
We’re waitin’
We wait

No no no no
No no no no
There's a mist when all is gone
Like silhouette from smoke

We’re waitin’
We’re waitin’
We’re waitin’
We’re waitin’
