Sweet Elaine

Good things come to those who wait,
I work so hard, for you,
Please help me see this through,
My sweet Elaine
Sweet Elaine
Here we go again,
Making new arrangements
A wedding with some strangers,
It's a fantasy
Drink the rain,
Before the weather changes,
New years and new faces,
Lost of celebrations,
For no reason.
Holding on to something real,
Holding on to love's embrace,
Good things come to those who wait,
My sweet Elaine.
Why slow down?
We've always moved around,
Strangers and acquaintances,
This conversations crazy,
What am I to do?
Sweet Elaine,
Help me to ease this pain.
'fore the book starts over,
I found a four leaf clover,
On your front step.
Holding on to something real,
Holding on to love's embrace,
Good things come to those who wait,
I work so hard, for you,
Please help me see this through,
Oh my sweet Elaine.
Holding on to something real,
Holding on to love's embrace,
Good things come to those who wait,
I was never one to stay,
But I'm holding on
I'm holding on,
I'm holding on,
I work so hard for you,
Please help me see this through,
Please help me see this through,
Oh my sweet Elaine.
