[Verse 1]

So long

I've been lookin' too hard, I've been waiting too long

Sometimes I don't know what I will find

I only know it's a matter of time

When you love someone

When you love someone

[Pre-Chorus]

It feels so right, so warm and true

I need to know if you feel it, too

Maybe I'm wrong

Won't you tell me if I'm comin' on too strong?

This heart of mine has been hurt before

This time I want to be sure

[Chorus]

I've been waiting for a girl like you

To come into my life

I've been waiting for a girl like you

A love that will survive

I've been waiting for someone new

To make me feel alive

Yeah, waiting for a girl like you

To come into my life

[Verse 2]

You're so good

When we make love, it's understood

It's more than a touch or a word we say

Only in dreams could it be this way

When you love someone

Yeah, really love someone

[Pre-Chorus]

Now, I know it's right

From the moment I wake up 'til deep in the night

There's nowhere on earth that I'd rather be

Than holding you tenderly

[Chorus]

I've been waiting for a girl like you

To come into my life

I've been waiting for a girl like you (Waiting for a girl)

A love that will survive

I've been waiting (I've been waiting) for someone new

To make me feel alive

Yeah, waiting (Waiting) for a girl like you (Waiting for a girl)

To come into my life

[Outro]

I've been waiting

Waiting for you

Ooh, I've been waiting (Waiting)

I've been waiting, yeah

(I've been waiting for a girl like you)

(I've been waiting)

Won't you come into my life?

Ahh
