There was a time I used to cry
Nothing but tears of loneliness
There was a change - your love arranged
You changed my tears to happiness

It took a long [bad word] Sure took a long [bad word] But it was well worth waiting for

My life was bare, with nobody to care
Our love was only a dream to me
My plans were blue, till I found you
And you made my dreams reality

It took a long [bad word] Sure took a long [bad word] But it was well worth waiting for

I used to weep
And I used to cry
But that first knock on my door
Means that I won't cry no more

Long [bad word] Such a long [bad word] But it was well worth waiting for
