I'm Still Waiting Lyrics - The Complete Atlantic Sides Plus - Patti Labelle & The Bluebelles

I remember when 

I was five and you were ten, boy 

You knew that I was shy 

So you teased and made me cry 

But I loved you 

Then one day you came 

You told me you were leaving 

You gave your folks the blame 

And made me cry again 

When you said 

Little girl 

Please don't wait for me 

Wait patiently for love 

Someday will surely come 

Ooh, little girl 

Please don't wait for me 

Wait patiently for love 

Someday will surely come 

And I'm still waiting 

I'm waiting 

Ooh, still waiting 

I'm just a fool 

Ooh, I'm a fool 

To keep waiting 

Then someone finally came 

He told me that he loved me 

I put him off with lies 

He could see I had no eyes 

So he left me once again alone 

Like a child without her playmate 

I had to face the truth 

I was still in love with you 

But you said: 

Little girl 

Please don't wait for me 

Wait patiently for love 

Someday will surely come 

Ooh, little girl 

Please don't wait for me 

Wait patiently for love 

Someday will surely come 

And I'm still waiting 

Love has never shown his face 

Since the day you walked out that door 

You filled my life with empty space 

Come back 

Can't you see it's you I'm waiting for 

Don't you know I'm waiting 

I'm waiting for love 

For you, I miss you 

I'm waiting 

Come on back, boy 

I need you 

I want you 

That's what my friends says
