When a fool begins to explain he's in love Where's the sympathy when he feels he should give up Well I patiently wait for you Where does truth begin when you know that it hurts All the time you spent you feel it's time to give up I know you'll never come My arms will not take hold of you But instead of giving up I wait 'Cos I patiently wait for you in the dark To fall into my arms When a fool begins to explain he's in love Where's the sympathy when he feels he should give up I know you'll never come My arms will not take hold of you But instead of giving up I waited all my life for this
