I sit and watch the time go by   Can someone please tell me the reason why   How can a man stay dignified   When all he does is cry inside?    I need to know   And question how I'm feeling   I have to know   Why girl, it's still been keeping us apart (yeah yeah)      If I ask myself   What you mean to me   If I could reach inside   I'd see that you're everything I've waited for   And I tell myself what you mean to me   I'm down on my knees for you   Praying you'll hear what I'm saying   Believe me it's true (yeah yeah)   I'm waiting for you      Do you feel alone   On your own tonight   And would you like someone to hold you tight   We've gotta keep this love alive   Hand in hand and side by side      I need to know   Please tell me how your feeling   Guess you should know   Why girl it's still been keeping us apart (yeah yeah)      If I ask myself what you mean to me   If I could reach inside   I'd see that you're everything I've waited for   And I tell myself what you mean to me   I'm down on my knees for you   Praying you'll hear what I'm saying believe me it's true (yeah yeah)   I'm waiting for you      Right here for you   Waiting for you   I'm waiting for you
