I always admitted pity
cause i was getting lonely
Oh oh, I was lonely
a'baby without you.
I always had hid it,
pity needed you to hold me.
Oh boy, you should have known me,
I didn't know how to.
Gone are the days of magic
those times were cool.
I tried to make love not hate.
What was I to do?
Oh, the beats were playing,
we danced all night.
We were kissing
till dark turned to light.
[Chorus:]
Ah-ooh
Rolling back the rivers in time.
Can't wait. Got to see his face somewhere.
Ah-ooh
Holding back the minutes gone by.
Someday, got to see his face oh yeah.
There's a feeling in my soul
that sets my heart alive.
I tell you there's a feeling in my soul
that tells me that you're all mine.
There's an arrow in my heart
just hit at seventeen.
I tell you there's a shadow in my heart
that tells of what could have been.
[Chorus]
Doesn't really matter
I felt nothing better at all.
Ho-hoo
Sending him a letter
I know I won't regret it all.
Ho-hoo
Doesn't really matter
a miracle could happen for sure.
Ho-hoo
I'd rather wait for ever
baby never have it at all.
[Chorus (x2)]
