I've been waiting for love
To come back in style
Oh, I've been waiting for what seems like
Such a long, long while
While caring and compassion
Seem to be out of fashion
There's a thousand frowns
For every smile
Still I keep waiting for love
To come on back in style
Oh, and I've been dreaming (dreaming)
That things are about to change
And I've been praying (praying)
That people will stop acting so strange
So strange
If this world's to survive
We must keep hope alive
Even through the darkest trials
So I'll keep waiting for love
To come on back in style
These are hard times for lovers
No one knows that better than I
These are hard times for lovers
But that's no reason not to try
I've been thinkin' (thinkin')
That you might feel the way I do
Oh, and I've been hoping (hoping)
That you will let me know it's true
It just takes two to make a new start
All you've got to do is open up your heart
Then there'll be no more waiting for love
There'll be no more waiting for love
To come back in style
