I Can Hardly Wait

(album: After The Rain - 1990)

No use pretending
Let's tell it like it is
You just took advantage
When I gave all I had to give
After one too many battles
I got tired of the fight
Each time we were together
Was just like walking on thin ice

Couldn't make it happen
No matter how I tried
Decided it's impossible
To keep you satisfied
Our love was like a candle
Slowly dying in the wind
You can't hold on when the feeling's gone
Now we've finally reached the end

I step out of the darkness
And leave it all behind
Ooh, now I'm ready for a brand new life

Oh, I can hardly wait
Gonna find another lover
Gonna start to live again
Oh, I can hardly wait
For somebody new to get into
I can hardly wait

I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait

Don't need the pressure
I refuse to play the game
I won't be around to jump
Next time you call my name
I'll take my chances
I'll take it day by day
Let the curtain fall I'm out of love, that's all
Now there's nothing left to say

Learning from the changes
Got my feet back on the ground
Ooh, nothing's ever gonna stop me now

Oh, I can hardly wait
Gonna find another lover
Gonna start to live again
Oh, I can hardly wait
For somebody new to get into
I can hardly wait

Moving on, down the road of life
I'm looking forward to what it is I'll find
The best is yet to come
And I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait

I can hardly wait
Gonna find another lover
Gonna start to live again
Oh, I can hardly wait
For somebody new to get into
I can hardly
I can hardly wait
For somebody new to get into
I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait
