Anticipation
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.
I can't hardly wait
Tonight the need for love, is here between us
And the desire for each other, we cannot hide
Cause anxiously we wait, to feel the passion
That the hunger in our eyes, can't disguise
So girl let's not waste, another moment
Trying to decide, right or wrong
Just come and hold me close, to your body
And let's release the love we've been holding back so long
I'm trying so hard to be patient
But when you're near me I lose control
And there is no time for hesitation
And if you don't give your love to me, I'm going to explode from
Anticipation, anticipating your every move
Anticipation, anticipating what we're going to do
Don't make me wait, yeah
So girl let's put an end, to all this waiting
And let the power of our desires, tonight unfold
No matter how hard, we try to fight it
When the needle rises baby, it's time to let go
I'm trying so hard to be patient
But when you're near me I lose control
And there is no time for hesitation
And if you don't give your love to me, I'm going to explode from
Anticipation, anticipating your every move
Anticipation, anticipating what we're gonna do
Oh, yeah
Every breath you take
