Like a movie scene 
In the sweetest dreams 
Have pictured us together 
Now to feel your lips 
On my fingertips 
I have to say is even better 
Then I ever thought it could possibly be 
It's perfect, it's passion, 
It's setting me free 
From all of my sadness 
The tears that I've cried 
I have spent all of my life 

Waiting for tonight, oh 
When you would be here in my arms 
Waiting for tonight, oh 
I've dreamed of this love for so long 
Waiting for tonight 

Tender words you say 
Take me breath away 
Love me now, leave me never 
Found a sacred place 
Lost in your embrace 
I want to stay in this forever 
I think of the days when the sun used to set 
On my empty heart, all alone in my bed 
Tossing and turning 
Emotions were strong 
I knew I had to hold on 

Waiting for tonight, oh 
When you would be here in my arms 
Waiting for tonight, oh 
I've dreamed of this love for so long 
Waiting for tonight 

Waiting for tonight, oh 
When you would be here in my arms 
Waiting for tonight, oh 
I've dreamed of this love for so long 
Waiting for tonight 

Gone are the days when the sun used to set 
On my empty heart all alone in my bed 
Tossing and turning 
Emotions were strong 
I knew I had to hold on 

Waiting for tonight, oh 
When you would be here in my arms 
Waiting for tonight, oh 
I've dreamed of this love for so long 
Waiting for tonight
