He wasn't looking for a pretty face

She wasn't searching for the latest style

He didn't want someone who walked straight off the TV

She needed someone with an interior smile



She wasn't looking for a cuddle in the back seat

He wasn't looking for a five minute thrill

She wasn't thinking of tomorrow or of next week

This vacancy he meant to permanently fill



Chorus

I need an everlasting love

I need a friend and a lover divine

An everlasting precious love

Wait for it, wait for it, give it some time



Back in the world of disposable emotion

In the climate of temporary dreams

He wasn't looking for a notch on his bedpost

A love to push, pull and burst at the seams



Is this love worth waiting for

Something special, something pure



Is this love worth waiting for

Bitterness will die for sure

Something special, something pure

Is this love worth waiting for
