Every time I see you and

I look into your eyes

Theres a feeling that I get

And its way down deep inside, girl

Ive been trying to hold on, but

you say that youre not sure

I just hope you realize what

my heart is going through

How long, must this feeling go on

How long, must I stand the pain and

How long, must this feeling go on

Waiting for the night

Waiting for the right time to come

I know all about the hurt

and the problems in the past

I know why youre scared of love,

Cause you think it just wont last long

Well, Im here to tell you

what Im saying is all true

There aint nobody else in life

That can take the place of you

How long, must this feeling go on

How long, must I stand the pain and

How long, must this feeling go on

Waiting for the night

Waiting for the right time to run

Why cant we just run away, and oh run

A place where we can be alone

and nobody finds us, run

Can we both just run away, oh run

Girl, I cant wait to have you

How long, must this feeling go on

How long, must I stand the pain and

How long, must this feeling go on

Waiting for the night

Waiting for the right time to come

to come
