I've waited for you and I've always been true, But this waiting no longer I can stand. I know you've had time, dear, to make up your mind. I've waited as long as I can.
CHORUS: I've waited to hear you say you love me, And longed for the day you'd take my hand. I asked again last night for your love so divine. I've waited as long as I can.
Done all I can do; said all I can say. Oh, why can't I make you understand? I've wanted you for mine but I've wasted my time. I've waited as long as I can.
CHORUS
Now I'll jut say goodbye. The tears fall from my eyes, For you have made it plain that I can't win. No one will ever know the pain that I've been through. I've waited as long as I can.
