Why do you come so late (so late)
I've been so anxious (yeah, yeah)
Why do you make me wait (make me wait)
Don't you know I'm jealous (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Baby, I'm so afraid (so afraid)
That I should lose you (yeah, yeah)
My heart is gonna break (going to break)
Cause I'm in love with you (in love with you)
Baby, I've been standing on the corner for my rendez vous (rendez vous)
All the time it's raining and I've got a cold
By my love for you (by my love for you)
Why do you come so late (so late)
When you say at seven (yeah, yeah)
Why do you make me wait (make me wait)
Please don't come at eight (don't come at eight)
Why do you come so late
Why do you come so late
Why do you come so late
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Why do you come so late
Why do you come so late
Why do you come so late
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Baby, I've been standing on the corner for my rendez vous (rendez vous)
All the time it's raining and I've got a cold
By my love for you (by my love for you)
Why do you come so late (so late)
When you say at seven (yeah, yeah)
Why do you make me wait (make me wait)
Please don't come at eight (why do come so late)
After all I don't care (yeah, yeah)
For the time I've waiting (yeah, yeah)
You are in my arms (in my arms)
I'm so happy with you (with you)

I'm so happy with you (with you)
You are in my arms (in my arms)
I'm so happy with you (with you, with you)
