Waiting for the Fire lyrics

I need some tenderness

More than a quick caress

I want the very best of you

Don't push me back again

Let the excuses end

Half-hearted kisses will not do

Just tell it to me straight, my dear

Are all my wishes in vain?

Or is it just a temporary phase?

Your messages are so unclear

I'm standing out in the rain

Waiting for a sign, waiting for the fire to reflame

It seems like yesterday

You would beg me to stay

You couldn't bear to see me go

Closer than skin to skin

Our souls exchanged within

Now you're someone I barely know

Just tell it to me straight, my dear

Are all my wishes in vain?

Or is it just a temporary phase?

Your messages are so unclear

I'm standing out in the rain

Waiting for a sign, waiting for the fire to reflame

Yeah, yeah

I cannot hold out too much longer

I'm backin' up but soon I'll back away

If there's truly no desire

Spare us the pain

Save us the time

Give me my pride

Just tell it to me straight, my dear

Are all my wishes in vain?

Or is it just a temporary phase?

Your messages are so unclear

I'm standing out in the rain

Waiting for a sign, waiting for the fire to reflame

(Waiting for the fire)

(Waiting for the fire)

(Waiting for the fire)

Save us the time

(Waiting for the fire)

Give me my pride

(Waiting for the fire)

Save us the time

(Waiting for the fire)

Waiting for a sign

(Waiting for the fire)

(Waiting for the fire)
