When I first saw your face
Knew that I could not hesitate
You said, "Baby, don't go too fast
If we do, then it may not last"
Time went on and I waited for you
I didn't know what else I could do (else should I do)
I thought that we'd always be together
You said, "Hold on, it just gets better"
And I believed you
I kept holding on
You think that I can never leave you
You think I'm not that strong
You're wrong!
Love won't wait (love won't wait)
Forever and a day (love won't wait)
Love must live in the here and now
Don't ask me how I know
So here I am with my heart on my sleeve
You said, "Baby, put your trust in me"
But I have come to the end of the line
And you've wasted up all of my precious time
Wanted to be something special to you
Everybody's somebody's fool
Won't be a fool, no, you've got me all wrong (all wrong)
You don't know what you have (know what you have)
Till it's gone
And I believed you
I kept holding on
You think that I can never leave you
You think I'm not that strong
You're wrong!
Love won't wait (love won't wait)
Forever and a day (love won't wait)
Love must live in the here and now
Don't ask me how I know
Love takes time (love takes time)
But you've been takin' too long (take too long)
Time's never waited for anyone
Don't wait too long or I'll be gone (I'll be gone)
Don't wait too long, I'll be gone
I'll be gone
(Oh there) - There wasn't anything
That I wouldn't do
(And you) - You led me on
You even said, "I love you" (I love you, baby)
How can we go on
When it's tearin' us apart?
(How can we love?)
Are you going to break my heart?
'Cause I believed you
Love won't wait (love won't wait)
Forever and a day (love won't wait)
Love must live in the here and now
Don't ask me how I know
Love takes time (love takes time)
But you've been takin' too long (take too long)
Time's never waited for anyone
Don't wait too long or I'll be gone (love won't wait)
How much longer can I wait for you?
(Don't let this love just pass by us)
Can't you holding on?
(Love is so hard to find and so easy to lose)
