So many times with you and I
Thought it was right but I was wrong
It's true.

But I wouldn't feel the way I do
Without a sense of something real
For you.

It's all about a good thing
So I don't mind holding on.

But how long
Are you gonna make me wait?
And how long
Are you gonna hesitate?
'Cause I love the way we're carrying on
But baby how long?

You know the way they always say
"Don't make it never it's better late,"
Well that's true.

But tell me why my cautious angel
Must you put it in my face
Like you do?

It's all about a good thing
So I don't mind holding on.

But how long
Are you gonna make me wait?
And how long
Are you gonna hesitate?
'Cause I love the way we're carrying on.

But baby I don't ever wanna make you feel to rushed
Make you feel like love wouldn't be enough
But that's just another "Don't mean much"
Like a high school crush, make you wanna run
Can't you see the way I need you crazy
And I want you in my arms every night
Of my life.

So tell me
How long
Are you gonna make me wait?
And how long
Are you gonna hesitate?
'Cause I love the way we're carrying on
But baby how long?

How long
How long?

How long
How long
How long?
Tell me how long?
