Lirik Terjemahan
This is just another day that I would spend waiting for the right one
Staring at the night, and wishing I could be the one to feel the warm sun
You're a dream, but I'm wide awake
I'm in Heaven, for Heaven's sake
So get ready (get ready), I'm ready now (get ready)
I could never need you more than now
You were worth the waiting for
You, the one that I adore
Hold on to you tight, for once in my life
You were worth the waiting for
You, the one that I adore
This kind of love, you'll only find
Once in a lifetime, once in a lifetime
Tell me that you're living in a place where no one else can find you
Tell me that you're singing out my name, hoping that I'll hear you
Tell me "no", and I'll fade away
But this is loving that I won't waste
So get ready (get ready), I'm ready now (get ready)
I could never need you more than now
You were worth the waiting for
You, the one that I adore
Hold on to you tight, for once in my life
You were worth the waiting for
You, the one that I adore
This kind of love, you'll only find
Once in a lifetime, once in a lifetime
"What are the words I'm needing to hear?"
"How do I know if I'll ever love again?"
Seeing your face makes everything clear (clear) clear
And I'll never be the same
You were worth the waiting for
You, the one that I adore
Hold on to you tight, for once in my life
You were worth the waiting for
You, the one that I adore
This kind of love, you'll only find
Once in a lifetime, once in a lifetime
