I never felt nothing in the world like this before
Now I'm missing you, and I'm wishing you would come back through my door
Ooh-ooh
Why did you have to go?
You could have let me know
So now, I'm all alone

Girl, you could have stayed, but you wouldn't give me a chance
With you not around, it's a little bit more than I can stand
Ooh-ooh
And all my tears they
Keep running down my face
Why did you turn away?

So why does your pride make you run and hide?
Are you that afraid of me?
But I know it's a lie, what you keep inside
This is not how you want it to be

So baby, I will wait for you
'Cause I don't know what else I can do
Don't tell me, I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life
Baby, I will wait for you
If you think I'm fine, it just ain't true
I really need you in my life
No matter what, I have to do
I'll wait for you

It's been a long time since you called me
You gotta be feeling crazy
Ooh-ooh
How can you walk away?
Everything stays the same
I just can't do it, baby

What will it take to make you come back?
Girl, I told you what it is, and it just ain't like that
No, oh-oh
Why can't you look at me?
You're still in love with me
Don't leave me crying

Baby, why can't we just
Just start over again?
Get it back to the way it was
If you give me a chance, I can love you right
But you're telling me, it won't be enough

So baby, I will wait for you
'Cause I don't know what else I can do
Don't tell me, I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life
Baby, I will wait for you
If you think I'm fine, it just ain't true
I really need you in my life
No matter what, I have to do
I'll wait for you

So why does your pride make you run and hide?
Are you that afraid of me?
But I know it's a lie, what you're keeping inside
That is not how you want it to be
Baby, I will wait for you
Ooh-ooh

Baby, I will wait for you
