Can't Wait Forever
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Friends from the start, affairs of the heart
Brought us closer than we ever dreamed
Love was so blind, just a question of time
And things didn't turn out quite the way the seemed
When the heat was turned on, the fire it was gone
Tour train of thought just slipped right off the track
Then a flash of the hand, not the way that it was planned
I just bought your ticket and you're never coming back
Can't live, can't love, can't wait to hold you in my open arms
Can't live, can't love, can't wait forever
Counting the days, been changing my ways
Is that the way that it was mean to be
The way you threw down your book, I knew by your look
You were gone from that moment, you ain't coming back to me
I can't live without you
I can't love without you
Just can't wait to hold you in my open arms
Can't live
Can't love
Can't wait forever
