It’s the way that you walk, curls of your hair
There’s just so little around to compare
I’ll have you one day baby, I’ve made up my mind
I don’t mind waiting a long time
Wait a little while, some things take so long
Don’t you worry baby - I’ll be strong
Wake up one morning, girl it’s me that you find
I don’t mind waiting a long time
Don’t you wait. Don’t you know.
Goddamn I’ve been thinking I was ready to go
You came up to me then I changed my mind.
I don’t mind staying a long time.
Wait a little while, some things take so long
Don’t you worry baby - I’ll be strong
One of these bright mornings, girl it’s me that you find
I don’t mind waiting a long time

Oh the dead man wish he were sleeping
Sleeping man wish to awake
I wanna wake up next to you
I don’t care what it might take
Lone man wish he were taken
Taken man wish to be free
This free man knows its no life at all
Without the pleasure of your company
I don’t mind your love coming truly
Take your sexual powers and fool me
Give me your rhythm your curves and your bakin
Honey love I’m there for the takin
You can beat, mistreat and then use me
Throw me down the street and then bruise me
I submit to all of your lovin
I admit that I had it comin
Knew this love / Right from the start
Oh my god, is that my heart?
I wanna know, do dreams come true
Oh oh oh oh, they do
And you ask me why,
I I I I oh I
I wanna know, do dreams come true
Oh oh oh oh, they do
III
Because the dead man wish he were sleeping
Sleeping man wish to awake
I wanna wake up next to you
I don’t care what it might take
Lone man wish he were taken
Taken man wish to be free
I said this free man knows its no life at all
Without the pleasure of your company
If I find you and you’re already there
Loving someone, I won’t care
I’ll wait forever girl, I don’t mind
I don’t mind waiting a long time
I said wait a little while, some things take so long
Don’t you worry baby - I’ll be strong
Wake up one morning, girl it’s me that you find
I don’t mind waiting a long time
