Lyrics

[Intro]

Baby, I-I-I can't wait

[Verse 1]

My love

Tell me what it's all about

You've got something

That I can't live without

Happiness

Is so hard to find

Hey baby

Tell me what is on your mind

[Chorus]

'Cause I can't wait (Baby)

Till you call me on the telephone (I can't wait)

I can't wait (Baby, I can't wait)

Till we're all alone (I can't wait)

[Verse 2]

You know I love you

Even when you don't try

I know

That our love will never die

Hey darling

When you look into my eye

Please tell me

You'll never have to say goodbye

[Chorus]

'Cause I can't wait (Baby)

This is what I've been waiting for (I can't wait)

I can't wait (Baby)

Till my love walked in the door (I can't wait)

I can't wait (Baby)

True love is so hard to find (I can't wait)

I found yours, you found mine

I can't wait (Baby)

Tell me what is on your mind (I can't wait)

[Bridge]

I can't wait

I can't wait

I can't wait

I can't wait

I can't wait

[Chorus]

(I can't wait) I can't wait

Say it one more time (Baby)

Tell me what is on your mind (I can't wait)

I can't wait (Baby)

This is what I've been waiting for (I can't wait)

Oh I can't wait (Baby)

Till my love walked in the door (I can't wait)
