A letra:
Oh,
baby
Well there's a light in your eye that keeps shining
Like a
star that can't wait for night
I hate to think I been blinded
baby
Why can't I see you tonight?
And the warmth of your smile
starts a burning
And the thrill of your touch give me fright
And
I'm shaking so much, really yearning
Why don't you show up and
make it alright, yeah?
It's alright right
And if you promised you'd love so
completely
And you said you would always be true
You swore that
you never would leave me baby
Whatever happened to you?
And you
thought it was only in movies
As you wish all your dreams would
come true, hey
It ain't the first time believe me baby
I'm
standing here feeling blue, blue ha!
Yes I'm blue
Oh, babe
Now I will stand in the rain on the
corner
I watch the people go shuffling downtown
Another ten
minutes no longer
And then I'm turning around, 'round
And the
clock on the wall's moving slower
Oh, my heart it sinks to the
ground
And the storm that I thought would blow over
Clouds the
light of the love that I found, found
Light of the love that I found
Light
of the love that I found
Oh, that I found
Hey, babe, ooh
Hand that ticks on the clock
Just
don't seem to stop
When I'm thinking it over
Oh, tired of the
light
I just don't seem to find
Have you wait, yeah
played
Whoa, I see it in my dreams
But I just don't seem to be
with you, you
I gotta get it all, gotta get it all, gotta get it
all
I've got to get all
Ooh now my body is starting to
quiver
And the palms of my hands getting wet, oh
I got no
reason to doubt you baby
It's all a terrible mess
And I'll run
in the rain till I'm breathless
When I'm breathless I'll run 'til
I drop, hey!
And the thoughts of a fool's kind of careless
I'm
just a fool waiting on the wrong block, oh yeah
Hey, now, oh, oh, oh
Light of the
love that I found
Light of the love that I found
Light of the
love that I
Light of the love that I found
Light of the hey,
now light of the hey, now
Light of the love that I found
Light
of the love that I found
