Worth Waiting For
When I look into your milk chocolate eyes
I can almost see a tropical sunrise
When Ive come to the end of my rope
I just imagine your voice
As you whisper deep in your throat
When I feel I can't go on
I remember someday we'll have our own home
When I see the days turn to night
I can't keep my fantasies far from sight
Though they hide themselves in the day
They find it plesant at night to come play
Then dreams of love fill my head
If love could kill then id be dead
You given me so much with just a look
I could spend my whole life writing a book
To tell the world what you mean to me
To show them all and let them see
Even in this world of hate
If you find one love
It's worth the wait
