A LOVE WORTH WAITING FOR
(Leathwood / Sulsh)

Shakin' Stevens - 1984


If you should ever want to be set free
If you're not certain your future lies with me
I'll let you go girl until your heart is sure
It's a love worth waiting for

Now I won't stop you from leaving 'cos I know
The way to keep you would be to let you go
And I'm prepared to wait a thousand years or more
It's a love worth waiting for

If you should leave me, oh please remember
In my heart there's a fire, a flame of desire for your charms
I'll keep alive this glowing ember
A love that will burn until you're back in my arms

You know, my darling, I need you here with me
But only to stay, dear, 'cos it's where you want to be
'Cos I'm prepared to wait a thousand years or more
It's a love worth waiting for

(Instrumental Break)
In my heart there's a fire, a flame of desire for your charms
(Instrumental Break)
A love that will burn until you're back in my arms

You know, my darling, I need you here with me
But only to stay, dear, 'cos it's where you want to be
'Cos I'm prepared to wait a thousand years or more
It's a love worth waiting for

It's a love worth waiting for
