TIME AFTER TIME
I learned so much about love
since I've been by your side
and you spend all your time
knowing what you've done for me
the simple fact is baby
that I'm longing for your girl
desperate and needing you
to stay in my life
cos I'm sorry
but forgiving
but your love for me
is for the long reasons
I wish I could satisfy you baby
but you're so sick of those natural things
guess I'm a fool for loving you
but honestly the truth is
time after time
I'll be yearning for you
dime after dime
I thought I was earning for too
maybe this time
you'll be the one who feels the pain
time after time again
and I used to be such a baby
crying in your arms
but now I'm older, wiser
now I'm hip to the scene
tell me when you make love
to that someone else
do you think of how it felt
different with me
when you fell asleep
when you wake up, I was there
I was honest
I was changed for the good
but the bad of it all
is it's worth nothing, nothing at all to you
I wonder if after it all
is there someone still waiting for me
is this all in the plan for the helping hand
I wish it could be you
but I know it can't
you gave your reasons why
you make perfect sense
but you'll miss your water
when your well runs dry
cos somewhere I believe
I was the one
you'll have your fun
in the back of your mind
you'll find it you still love me
time after time
