You tell me you are through with him

You'll soon be free just to be with me

So I'll stay by the phone



I'm waitin' every night at home

Watching tv shows and honey

Heaven knows I'm always alone



Tho' you never call me

I keep on loving you

Hoping that if I do, you're gonna love me too

And I won't have to wait too long



But how long is too long

I got to know, you're makin' me lose my mind

How long is too long

Hopin' everything will turn out okay

How long is too long

To sit around and wait till you come my way



I see you walkin' around with him

Holdin' hands and makin' plans

You're never apart



I see the way you look at him

When you're in a crowd

I know it makes him proud

While it's breakin' my heart



And all the time you tell me

Keep on lovin' you

And if I do, you're gonna love me too

And I won't have to wait too long



How long is too long

I've got to know, you're makin' me lose my mind

How long is too long

Cause baby I've been waitin' a long long time

How long is too long

Hopin' everything will turn out okay

How long is too long

To sit around and wait till you come my way
