It's about time 
It's about time that you start looking my way 
And I even gave you my last dime 
Even told you what to say 
It's about time 
It's about time that you start looking my way 
And I even gave you my last dime 
Even told you what to say 

Oh  I never had the nerve to approach you  baby 
'Cause I didn't think that you would ever look at me that way 
I known you for so long I seen all your lovers come and go 
I know exactly how to please you 
But I'm afraid that you'll say no 

It's about time 
It's about time that you start looking my way 
And I even gave you my last dime 
Even told you what to say 
It's about time 
It's about time that you start looking my way 
And I even gave you my last dime 
Even told you what to say 

You told me about the nights 
That you spent with her down by the lake 
I wanted to tell you stop 
How much could my poor heart take 
I started burning up inside, how I long so for you 
Just to feel your sweet caresses 
Is all I ever want to do 

It's about time 
It's about time that you start looking my way 
And I even gave you my last dime 
Even told you what to say 
It's about time 
It's about time that you start looking my way 
And I even gave you my last dime 
Even told you what to say 

I don't know why 
I couldn't tell you that I care for you 
And now I cry tears of joy 
As I let you know that it's about time 
That it's about time 

It's about time 
It's about time that you start looking my way 
And I even gave you my last dime 
Even told you what to say 
It's about time 
It's about time that you start looking my way 
And I even gave you my last dime 
Even told you what to say
