Verse 1:

                                      
 I remember when, I was five and you were ten, boy,
                                               
You knew that I was shy, so you teased and made me cry.
          
 But I loved you...

Verse 2:

                                         
 Then one day you came, you told me you were leaving,
                                            
You gave your folks the blame and made me cry a-gain.
       
 When you said...

Chorus 1:

                          
 Little girl, please don't wait for me,
                                         
Wait patiently for love, some-day will surely come.
                          
 Little girl, please don't wait for me,
                                         
Wait patiently for love, some-day will surely come.
                
And I'm still wait-ing.

Interlude:

  , 
        I'm waiting,
             
     Ooh, still waiting.

Bridge 1:

                          
 (I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool to keep waiting,
                         
 I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool).
                          
 (I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool to keep waiting,
                         
 I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool).

Interlude:

Verse 3:

                                          
Then someone finally came; he told me that he loved me,
                                           
I put him off with lies; he could see I had no eyes.
         
 So he left me...

Verse 4:

                                         
 Once again, a-lone like a child without her playmate,
                                              
I had to face the truth; I was still in love with you.
      
 But you said...

Chorus 2:

                          
 Little girl, please don't wait for me,
                                         
Wait patiently for love, some-day will surely come.
                          
 Little girl, please don't wait for me,
                                         
Wait patiently for love, some-day will surely come.
                
And I'm still wait-ing.

Break:

         
 Love has never shown his face,

 Since the day you walked out that door.
             
 You filled my life with empty space,

 Come back; can't you see it's you, I'm waiting for?

Coda:

(with Vocal Adlibs)

                          
 (I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool to keep waiting,
                         
 I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool).
                          
 (I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool to keep waiting,
                         
 I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool).
