If I could, I would tell you why
The first time I saw her I could touch the sky
I turned to stone, and I could not speak
She had the ability to make me weep

Chorus:

Always wishing, always hoping
That she'll get the message from the bottom of my heart
Let's together share forever
It's just a matter of time

I had to wait and just let her breathe
That's never been easy for a man to see
She moved slow and she took her time
She kept me guessing what was on her mind

Chorus:

Always wishing, always hoping
That you'd get the message from the bottom of my heart
Let's forever be together
It's just a matter of time
