(deke richards)



I remember when

I was five and you were ten, boy

You knew that i was shy

So you teased and made me cry

But i loved you



Then one day you came

You told me you were leaving

You gave your folks the blame

And made me cry again

When you said



Little girl

Please don't wait for me

Wait patiently for love

Someday will surely come

Ooh, little girl

Please don't wait for me

Wait patiently for love

Someday will surely come

And i'm still waiting



I'm waiting

Ooh, still waiting

I'm just a fool

Ooh, i'm a fool

To keep waiting



Then someone finally came

He told me that he loved me

I put him off with lies

He could see i had no eyes

So he left me once again alone

Like a child without her playmate

I had to face the truth

I was still in love with you

But you said:



Little girl

Please don't wait for me

Wait patiently for love

Someday will surely come

Ooh, little girl

Please don't wait for me

Wait patiently for love

Someday will surely come

And i'm still waiting



Love has never shown his face

Since the day you walked out that door

You filled my life with empty space

Come back

Can't you see it's you i'm waiting for



Don't you know i'm waiting

I'm waiting for love

For you, i miss you

I'm waiting

Come on back, boy

I need you

I want you

That's what my friends says
