Lyrics
Let’s sing along with the lyrics!
She's waiting for another love
She's waiting for another love
She's been waiting for another love
Someone that she can show into her heart
And when she finally finds a stronger love
Your whole world's gonna fall apart
She's waiting for another love
She's waiting for another love
You've been abusing her for far too long
Think you're a king and she's your pawn
Get ready now, 'cause pretty soon
She'll be gone and you'll be on your own
She's waiting for another love
She's waiting for another love
I see the hunger burning in her eye
Any fool could see there's something wrong
You keep pretending not to care
But I will hear you sing a different song
She's waiting for another love
She's waiting for another love
Waiting for another lover
Hoping for the time that she'll find another.
