we know that it's all over
still we haven't said goodbye
pretending life is wonderful
pretending, you and I
Why do we stay together
we can't wait forever
ever's too late
only Heaven can wait
Waiting for love won't make it happen
Crying for love don't mean you care
only when love has ended
can our hearts be mended
ever's too late
only heaven can wait
for love
heaven can wait for love
in horiscope, in true romance, and playboy magazines
we lie in bed at night
and search the pages for our dreams
why do we stay together
we can't wait forever
ever's too late
only heaven can wait
waiting for love won't make it happen
crying for love don't mean you care
unh, unh
only when love has ended
can our hearts be mended
ever's too late
only heaven can wait
why do we stay together
we can't wait forever
ever's too late
only heaven can wait
(ooh) why do we stay together
we can't wait forever
ever's too late
only heaven can wait
(oh) why do we stay together
(and we) we can't wait forever
ever's too late
only heaven can wait for love
why do we stay together
we can't wait forever
ever's too late for love
only heaven can wait for love
why do we stay together
we can't wait forever
ever's too late for love
only heaven can wait for love
