Love don't keep me waiting all alone

Let me tell you what I need I'm anticipating

My own prince from a Cinderella dream

Then I looked up and there you were



With a sweet love that rocked my world

It felt like a fantasy

Up until the day you had to leave me

I needed more time I feel cheated



One minute you came, one minute you're mine

One minute of life one minute you leave

One minute I cry 'cause without your love

One minute's too much



Time just seems to stand still

Seconds tick each one like eternity

Only you can free me from this jail

Only our love holds the key

I played with love and thought I'd win

But found out all good things must end



I wish I would have known

The seconds and the minutes and the hours

It's all precious time and I need one more night



One minute seems so long, so long

I can never do without

Your lovin' 'cause it's so good, so good

You make every minute of lovin' count



So hurry back home to me

And love me like you used to do

I'm tellin' you I will not forget it

I won't waste one minute of love
