[Verse 1]
I, I've been in love before
I thought I would no more
Manage to hit the ceiling
Still, strange as it seems to me
You brought it back to me
That old feeling
[Verse 2]
I, I don't know what you do
You make me think that you
Possibly could release me
I think you'll be able to
Make all my dreams come true
And you ease me
[Chorus]
You thrill me, you delight me
You please me, you excite me
You're something I'd been pleading for
I love you, I adore you
I've laid my life before you
I'll have you want me more and more
And finally it seems my lonely days are through
I've been waiting for you
[Verse 3]
I, I'm gonna make you mine
You're gonna feel so fine
You'll never want to leave me
I feel you belong to me
Someday you will agree
Please, believe me
[Chorus]
You thrill me, you delight me
You please me, you excite me
You're something I'd been pleading for
I love you, I adore you
I've laid my life before you
I'll have you want me more and more
And finally it seems my lonely days are through
I've been waiting for you
Oh, I've been waiting for you
[Outro]
Na na na, na na na, na-na na
Na na na, na na na, na-na na

Na na na, na na na, na-na na
Na na na, na na na, na-na na
Na na na, na na na, na-na na-na
Na na na, na na na, na-na na
Na na na, na na na, na-na na
Na na na, na na na, na-na na-na
Na na na, na na na, na-na na
Na na na, na na na, na-na na
Na na na, na na na, na-na na-na
