| Wait — Wait — I never had a chance to love you |
| Now I only wanna say I love you one more time |
| Wait — just a moment before our love will die |
| 'Cause I — must know the reason why we say goodbye |
| Wait — just a moment and tell me why |
| Cause I — can show you lovin' that you won’t deny |
| Wait — and show your lovin' like it was before |
| Cause I — won’t let that feelin' walk out through the door |
| I said wait — just a moment and try once more |
| 'Cause babe — I need to hold you like I did before |
| So if you go away — I know that I will follow |
| 'Cause there’s a place inside my heart that tells me Hold out, hold out, hold out |
| Oh, baby — wait — wait — I never had a chance to love you |
| Wait — wait — if only our love could show you |
| Wait — wait — I never wanna be without you |
| Wait — wait — no I never had a chance to love you |
| Now I only wanna say I love you one more time |
| solo |
| So if you go away — I know that I will follow |
| 'Cause there’s a place inside my heart that tells me Hold out, hold out, hold out |
| Oh, baby — wait — wait — I never had a chance to love you |
| Wait — wait — if only our love could show you |
| Wait — wait — I never wanna be without you |
| Wait — wait — no I never had a chance to love you |
| Now I only wanna say I love you… (wait…) |
| Baby, I beg you to wait |
| No I never had a chance to love you |
