EARTH, WIND AND FIRE lyrics - Wait

(Maurice White, David Foster & Allee Willis)



I've been waiting so long,

Just watching the phone, for you.

To wait, it takes,

Love that's for real

And all, that I feel, inside to do.



I come prepared, to look in your eyes

And walk side by side,

With you-baby, baby.



Listen for tender words, I'd like to say

Like I love you today, and I'll wait

For you.



[Chorus]

It's crazy, if you think, we're just friends.

Loving when, infatuation ends.

The wait for you, baby it now begins.



You sigh, when I come close to your heart.

You cry, from the start,

Please wait for me.

Your mind, shows, places you go,

And things you don't know.

Someday you'll grow.



Climbing a moutain high,

Your love I desire.

Inside my heart cries for you.



[Chorus]



Baby, we're more, than friends-

I know, the wait will end
