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

Oh, the simple fact is, baby, that I'm longing for you, girl

Desperate and needing you to stay in my life

'Cause I'm sorry, but forgiving

But your love for me is for the wrong 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 earnin' for two, baby

Maybe this time you'll be the one to feel the pain

Time after time again

Yeah, oh

And I used to be such a baby, crying in your arms

But now I'm older and 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 to you

I wonder if after it all

Is there someone still waiting for me?

Is it all in the plan for the helping hand?

I wish it would be you, but I know it can't

Time after time, I'll be yearning for you

Oh, and I don't wanna be yearning for you, baby

Dime after dime, I thought I was earnin' for two

For two, for two, baby

Maybe this time you'll be the one to feel the pain

Time after time again

Yeah

You gave your reasons why, you made perfect sense

But you'll miss your water when your well runs dry

And somewhere, I believe, I was the one

You'll have your fun

But baby, in the back of your mind

You'll find that you still love me

Time after time

Time after time, I'll be yearning for you

Dime after dime, I thought I was earnin' for two

Oh baby, oh baby, oh, maybe this time, baby

Maybe this time you'll be the one to feel the pain

Time after time again

Yeah

Time after time, I'll be yearning for you

Dime after dime, I thought I was earnin' for two

Maybe this time you'll be the one to feel the pain

Time after time again

Again, again, again, again
