“Wait for You” by Tom Walker
According to the singer, the addressee of this song would be a certain individual in his life. Said person, along with his family, went through a truly-harrowing ordeal some 15 years ago. And the way this person has recuperated from this life-altering event to now being a very-gregarious, joyful individual has inspired Tom Walker.
So as can be seen in the bridge, this is someone whom he very much admires. And throughout the rest of the song, what he seems to be saying to this individual is that he will remain by his side until he overcomes whatever hardship he was going through.
