Lyrics

Wait for Love

[Intro]

I wait for love

I wait for love

Wait for love

Wait for love

Wait for love

Wait for love

Wait for love

[Verse 1]

I got someone on my mind

She don’t make me wait the way you do

But time, oh, she holds me all the time

But she don’t make me wait the way you do

[Chorus]

Wait for love, wait for love

Sometimes, babe, we all have to wait for love

Wait for love, wait for love

Sometimes, babe, we all have to wait for love

[Verse 2]

I got someone on my mind

And she holds me pretty much the way you do

But time, oh, she holds me all the time

And she don’t make me wait the way you do

[Chorus]
