Lyrics for Don't Keep Me Waiting

Someday you're going to need me That day I'll be waiting For you to call for me Don't keep me waiting, my heart is breaking Don't make me waiting too long I want to keep on living But without you, I'm in pain Please, stop and consider Don't you think you're to blame? My arms, my arms are empty So, please hurry, darling I need you so bad I want you only, call and say you're lonely Don't make me waiting too long I want to keep on living But without you, I'm in pain So please, stop and consider Don't you think you're to blame? Will you stop by and see me? If it's just far awhile Say you still love me I keep on crying to keep from crying Don't make me waiting too long
