I have waited oh, so long
Please don't tell me baby I was wrong
Dreaming of you every night
Holding back until the time was right
I've counted the days, day after day
Since we've been apart
Now I've found my way, I've found my way
Right back to your heart
I've been searching for you every where
Calling you, but you were never there
Seeking in the dark of night
Hoping one day you would shine a light
I've counted each day, day after day
Since we've been apart
Now I've found my way, I've found my way
Right back to your heart
I have waited oh, so long
Please don't tell me baby I was wrong
Dreaming of you every night, every night, every night
Holding back until the time was right
Ooh, I have waited so long
Aah, don't tell me I was wrong
I dream of you, I'm dreaming of you baby
Don't go away
