Must I spend a lifetime just in waiting?
While others have fun
I am unequivocally stating
That, brother, you're done
(Stop and think it over just a minute)
I've had time to think for several days
(Let me plead my case and I will win it)
Enough of your ways
It can happen just once in a lifetime
That a touch can bring visions of bliss
So don't wait for perfection
Stop for reflection
Yield with a tender kiss
Dry your tears and just think of this moment
One moment worth years
Only once in a lifetime of waiting
Does the world seem to promise you more
Than you thought could exist
So please don't resist
You'll discover what living is for
It may happen just once in a lifetime
It's a moment too rare to ignore
It's you I need so follow my lead
Let's see what life has in store
Dry your tears and just think of this moment
One moment worth years
(Only once in a lifetime of waiting) Oh, yes
(Does the world seem to promise you more) Oh, yes
Than you thought could exist
So please don't resist
You'll discover what living's for, oh yes
It may happen just once in a lifetime
It's a moment too rare to ignore
Yes, it's you I need so follow my lead
Let's see what life has in store
Dry your tears and just think of this moment
(And baby)
Scat
(It's worth waiting for)
Scat, oh yes
