I've been holding out so long,

I've been sleepin all alone

Girl I miss you,

I been hangin on the phone,

I've been sleepin all alone

I wanna kiss you, (yeah)



Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh



Well I been haunted in my sleep

you've been staring in my dreams

Girl I miss you

Been waiting in the hall

been waiting on your call

When the phone rings

Its just some friends of mine, that say

"What's the matter man

We gon come around at 12

With some pretty girls that's just dying to meet you.

We gon bring a case of wine,

and lets go and fool around

Like we used to"

Aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah

Aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah

Aaaah aaah aaah



Tell me why

(Oh) everybody waits so long,

Tell me why you wait so long

Baby tell me why you wait so long

Wont you jus come on! (Come On!)



I've been walking thru Central park

singing after dark

People think im crazy (crazy)

I've been stumbling on my feet

Shuffling through the streets

Askin people "what's the matter with you boy?"

Sometimes I wanna say to myself

Sometimes I wanna say to myself

Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh

Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh

Oooh oooh oooh



Sometimes I want to say I'm wont miss you

But then again, I guess I'll be lying to myself

Its just you baby and no one else

I'm wont miss you girl

Cuz you been messin up my mind

and wasting my time

Lord, I wont miss you baby

Aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah

Aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah

Aaaah aaah aaah
