I know it's late

But I had to tell you what's been on my mind

It's been so long

Since I held you close and looked into your eyes

I know that lately, it seems

That time has passed us by

But boy I promise

That our love will make it right

(The next time I hold)

The next time that I hold you in my arms

(The next time I touch)

I've been longing boy, yes I'm longing for your touch

(The next time I kiss)

Let me taste the sweetness of your lips on mine

(The next time is for you)

The next time's all for you

I hope you know this love we have is true

Come close to me

Let me show you that my heart is yours to keep

No, baby no, don't you hesitate

This time you'll feel the warmth of our love

In my embrace

I know that lately, it seems

That time has passed us by

But boy I promise

That our love will make it right

(The next time I hold)

The next time that I hold you in my arms

(The next time I touch)

I've been longing boy, yes I'm longing for your touch

(The next time I kiss)

Let me taste the sweetness of your lips on mine

(The next time is for you)

The next time's all for you

I hope you know this love we have is true

(The next time I hold)

The next time that I hold you in my arms

(The next time I touch)

I've been longing boy, yes I'm longing for your touch

(The next time I kiss)

Let me taste the sweetness of your lips on mine

(The next time is for you)

The next time's all for you

I hope you know this love we have is true
