Lyrics
Hello love, nice to see you again
I hope someday we can still be friends
I know this line won't help you feel better
But a love you don't see just can't last forever
You've waited too long (you waited too long)
I knew I was wrong (you waited too long)
The day we parted, I was so broken-hearted
All I could do was think of you and how our love started
You said someday you would return
And that's why my heart continued to burn
But you've waited too long (you waited too long)
I couldn't go on (you waited too long)
Now that I found myself another girl (tell me all about it)
And she loves me with all of her heart (let me hear you shout it)
To me, she's all I need (all I need)
To make a brand new start
For you've waited too long
I couldn't go on (ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
You waited too long
