So I look in your direction

But you pay me no attention, do you?

I know, you don't listen to me

'Cause you say, you see straight through me, don't you?

But on and on, from the moment I wake

'Til the moment I sleep

I'll be there by your side

Just you try and stop me

I'll be waiting in line

Just to see if you care

Oh, did you want me to change?

Well, I changed for good

And I want you to know

That you'll always get your way

I wanted to say

Don't you shiver

Shiver

Sing it loud and clear

I'll always be waiting for you

So you know how much I need you

But you never even see me, do you?

And is this my final chance of getting you

But on and on, from the moment I wake

'Til the moment I sleep

I'll be there by your side

Just you try and stop me

I'll be waiting in line

Just to see if you care

If you care

Oh, did you want me to change?

Well, I changed for good

And I want you to know

That you'll always get your way

And I wanted to say

Don't you shiver

Sing it loud and clear

I'll always be waiting for you

Yeah, I'll always be waiting for you

For you

I will always be waiting

And it's you, I see

But you don't see me

And it's you, I hear

So loud and so clear

I sing it loud and clear

And I'll always be waiting for you

So I look in your direction

But you pay me no attention

And you know how much I need you

But you never even see me
