"I'll Wait" lyrics

"I'll Wait"

You've got me captured, I'm under your spell.
I guess I'll never learn.
I have your picture, yes I know it well.
Another page is turned.
Are you for real ? It's so hard to tell, from just a magazine.
Yeah, you just smile and the picture sells, look what that does to me.

[Chorus:]
I'll wait till your love comes down.
I'm coming straight for your heart.
No way you can stop me now, as fine as you are.
I wrote a letter and told her these words, that meant a lot to me.
I never sent it, she wouldn't have heard, her eyes don't follow me.
And while she watches I can never be free, such good photography !

[Chorus]

[Guitar solo]

You can't imagine what your image means.
The pages come alive.
Your magic greets everyone who reads.
Heart-break in overdrive
Are you for real, it's so hard to tell, from just a magazine.
Yeah, you just smile and the picture sells, look what that does to me.

[Chorus]
