I'm waitin' for your baby on an hot summer night

I was so hot for ya, you were nowhere in sight

You thought I was foolin' so your heart took a flight

I guess we're star crossed lovers, we just can't get it right



Two years later I was out on the town

I saw you on the street and my heart hit the ground

I guess love is like a chain and you're always bound



It's better late than never, girl am I gettin' through?

It's better late than never than livin' without you



I'm one step away, we're ships in the night

But tonight you ain't gonna get away

I'm one step away, the timing is right this time

And I'm gonna make you stay

One step away, one step away



I'm callin' on you baby like a blast from the past

I heard your heart was broken, I knew it wouldn't last

Some things are forever and some things burn out fast



It's better late than never, girl am I gettin' through?

It's better late than never than livin' without you



I'm one step away, we're ships in the night

But tonight you ain't gonna get away

I'm one step away, the timing is right this time

And I'm gonna make you stay

One step away, one step away



It's better late than never, girl am I gettin' through?

It's better late than never than livin' without you



I'm waitin' for your baby on an hot summer night

I was so hot for ya, you were nowhere in sight

You thought I was foolin' so your heart took a flight

I guess we're star crossed lovers, we just can't get it right



I'm one step away, we're ships in the night

But tonight you ain't gonna get away

I'm one step away, the timing is right this time

And I'm gonna make you stay

One step away, one step away



One step away, one step away

I'm one step away, we're ships in the night

But tonight you ain't gonna get away

I'm one step away, the timing is right this time
