I waited for you baby on that hot summer night

I was so hot for ya, you were nowhere in sight

You thought I was foolin'

So your heart took a flight

I guess we're star crossed lovers

We just can't get it right



Two years later I was out on the town

I saw you on the street and my heart hit the ground

I guess love is like a chain

And you're always bound



It's better late than never

Girl am I gettin' through

It's better late than never

Than livin' without you



I'm one step away

We're ships in the night

But tonight you ain't gonna get away

I'm one step away

The timing is right this time

And I'm gonna make you stay

One step away, one step away



I'm callin' on you baby

Like a blast from the past

I heard your heart was broken

I knew it wouldn't last

Some things are forever

And some things burn out fast
