So long, I've been looking 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 
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 coming on too strong 
This heart of mine has been hurt before, this time I wanna be sure 

I've been waiting for a girl like you to come into my life 
I've been waiting for a girl like you, your loving 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 

You're so good, when we make love it's understood 
It's more than a touch or a word can say 
Only in dreams could it be this way 
When you love someone, yeah, really love someone 

Now I know it's right, from the moment I wake up till deep in the night 
There's nowhere on earth that I'd rather be than holding you tenderly 

I've been waiting for a girl like you to come into my life 
I've been waiting for a girl like you, your loving 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 

I've been waiting, waiting for you, ooh, I've been waiting 
I've been waiting 
(I've been waiting for a girl like you, I've been waiting) 
Won't you come into my life?
