I Can't Wait

(album: We're Movin' Up - 1989)

I'm lying here gazing at the stars in the sky
And you're weighing heavy on my mind
And the warm gentle breeze seems to be a tease
Reminding me of a very special time
You gave me excitement that I'll never forget
And I'm desperately awaiting your return
'Cause the way that you loved me left my heart on fire
But the fire is sweet, so let it burn

I can't sleep 'cause I'm wondering about you
I can't eat 'cause I'm nervous inside
I can't hold out much longer to see you again
Oh, girl, my feelings are much, much too strong to hide

I can't wait
Ooh, baby, for my sake
Oh, please give me your love right now
We've gotta get back together somehow

I can't wait any longer

Why can't two people that feel the way we do
Be free to love no matter who they are
It only makes them feel love even more
And I feel that we're so close but yet so far
If I could do magic, I would cast a spell
On a carpet then I'd watch it fly
To wherever you are and I wouldn't blink
Till I saw you coming back through the sky

I can't sleep from thinking about you
I can't eat 'cause I'm nervous inside
Ooh, I can't hold out much longer to see you again
Oh, and my feelings are much, much too strong to hide

I can't wait
Ooh, baby, for my sake
Oh, please give me your love right now
We've gotta get back together somehow

I can't wait, no
I can't wait, no
I can't wait, no, no
I can't wait
Oh, it's a matter of urgency, yeah
I can't wait no longer
