I'm waitin' for your baby on an hot summer night I was so hot for ya, you were nowhere in sight You thought I was foolin' so your heart took a flight I guess we're star crossed lovers, we just can't get it right Two years later I was out on the town I saw you on the street and my heart hit the ground I guess love is like a chain and you're always bound It's better late than never, girl am I gettin' through? It's better late than never than livin' without you I'm one step away, we're ships in the night But tonight you ain't gonna get away I'm one step away, the timing is right this time And I'm gonna make you stay One step away, one step away I'm callin' on you baby like a blast from the past I heard your heart was broken, I knew it wouldn't last Some things are forever and some things burn out fast It's better late than never, girl am I gettin' through? It's better late than never than livin' without you I'm one step away, we're ships in the night But tonight you ain't gonna get away I'm one step away, the timing is right this time And I'm gonna make you stay One step away, one step away It's better late than never, girl am I gettin' through? It's better late than never than livin' without you I'm waitin' for your baby on an hot summer night I was so hot for ya, you were nowhere in sight You thought I was foolin' so your heart took a flight I guess we're star crossed lovers, we just can't get it right I'm one step away, we're ships in the night But tonight you ain't gonna get away I'm one step away, the timing is right this time And I'm gonna make you stay One step away, one step away One step away, one step away I'm one step away, we're ships in the night But tonight you ain't gonna get away I'm one step away, the timing is right this time
