Can’t Wait Lyrics by Foreigner

40

1987

[Verse 1]
I've been on this road a long time
I've been travellin' for days
But it seems I'm getting nowhere
I just can't find my way
I've been following directions
But they must be out of date
And I can't, and I can't, and I can't, no I can't
Decide which road to take

[Bridge]
See I've got to find my baby
Because we need to work things out
I've got to see that woman
I cannot do without her!

[Chorus]
You know I can't wait, can't wait another moment
I can't wait, I can't wait another heartbeat
No I can't wait, can't wait another moment
I couldn't wait another heartbeat
I can't wait until midnight

[Verse 2]
And the nights go on forever
These days I get no sleep
And I miss her more than ever
Inside where love runs deep
Oh I know I'm going to find her
Cause I'm following this star
And I can't, and I can't, no I can't turn back
Oh lord, I've come so far
And I'll know she'll whisper in my ear
About all the things I've missed
She's got that way about her now
I never could resist

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
No I can't wait
I can't wait another moment
I couldn't wait another heartbeat
I can't wait until the midnight

[Outro]
Now I can't wait
No no no can't wait
No no no
Can't wait
No no no
Can't wait
