I've waited so long a lifetime it seems

For someone to step right out of my dreams

All that an angel could be

And meant for only me

Play me a tune haunting and blue

Tell me of dreams that never come true

Sing me a lonely song

Till she comes along

It will be so wonderful

When love comes my way

No more lonely hours

They'll just fade away

Some day we'll meet somewhere I know

We'll kiss and say "I love you so"

Darling surely I can't be so wrong

For I've waited yes I've waited

So very long

So long my darling

So long my darling darling
