lyrics

Here I am, slave to your power, Heart's a million and one an hour
Hot cheeks they start to flush, my god this is such a rush
The sweat on my forehead gleams but you are nowhere to be seen
Well do you want me yes or no? I wanna love you but don't you know that
I've been waiting (I've been waiting) For so long
Yeah I've been waiting (I've been waiting) And I know it's wrong

I keep checking, no damn sign for what seems like the longest time
How can you make me wait this way? I hate it but I love it baby.
Hands are needles, feet all pins. What a heightened state I'm in
Well do you want me yes or no? I wanna love you but don't you know that
I've been waiting (I've been waiting) For so long
Yeah I've been waiting (I've been waiting) And I know it's wrong

What if I turn around to you, and tell you that I'm no-one's fool
Well maybe that would set me free to do what I damn well please
Or maybe I will end up lost, without the fear in which I trust
My heart is fast, my head is slow. I wanna leave you but don't you know that
I've been waiting (I've been waiting) For so long
Yeah I've been waiting (I've been waiting) And I know it's wrong
I've been waiting (I've been waiting) For so long
Yeah I've been waiting (I've been waiting) And I know it's wrong
I've been waiting (I've been waiting) For so long
Yeah I've been waiting (I've been waiting) Ive been waiting baby now I'm gone!
