As a child he sees the mountain
and hopes that someday he will climb
As the same she sees the dancer
and trusts in the dreams she will find
As we reach into tomorrow
we all need to find something new
Could it be I've found the answer
'cause I know now that I'm ready
What I want is you

Chorus
Don't keep me waiting, hanging on the line
Keep me waiting. Oh yeah

And I know what you are thinking
If only I could take the time to choose
You'd better get it right, cause it's time to see the light
And the minutes keep on passing, Hey you don't want to lose

Chorus
Don't keep me waiting, hanging on the line
Keep me waiting, don't waste my precious time
Don't keep me waiting, the devil needs his due
Keep me waiting. Oh no, no no no

And all the hopes and dreams of the past
That are haunting my heart, held in my hand
And all lives keep on passing
Over and over and over again

Ain't no matter now what you say, gonna keep on up anyway
keep me waiting, hanging on the line
Keep me waiting, don't waste my precious time
Don't keep me waiting, the devil needs his due
Keep me waiting. Oh no, no no
