I'm waiting for the day when you can love again I kissed your lips and when your face looked sad It made me think about him And that you still loved him so But pretty soon when I made you feel glad That you belonged to me And love began to show He hurt you then, but that's all gone I guess I'm saying you're the only one I'm waiting for the day when you can love again
