Well, I poured my heart into my handsnBut emotion took the best of me and walked awaynNow I hang my head and start to crynI wonder why I had to even wake up todaynnThen I see what I've waited fornAnd it makes me smile againnAnd think about the times I couldn't stand no morenThen I stop and think of you ... againnnI took some chances with my lifenBut they kept me locked and beaten in the cold outsidenAnd I call you on the telephonenAll my bills are paidnBut there's no dial tonennThen I hear what I've waited fornAnd it makes me smile againnAnd think about the times I couldn't take no morenThen I hear your voice ... againnnThen I see what I've waited fornAnd it makes me smile againnAnd think about the times I couldn't stand no morenThen I stop and think of you ... again
