Songfacts®:

  • "Wait For You" is a song about the kind of love that packs an emotional thermos and prepares to stick around for the long haul. It's a tender ballad where Myles Smith sings of the tension of sticking by someone, no matter what. Even when you're miles apart, you're still there, waiting for them.
  • Myles said the song is about watching a friend "battle their inner demons and a commitment to stand by them through their darkest times."

    He's promising "unwavering support and patience, capturing the essence of a relationship that transcends time and hardship."
  • Myles Smith wrote "Wait For You" with New York songwriter Jesse Fink and LA producer Peter Fenn. The same three crafted Smith's breakout hit "Stargazing."
