how long i've waited

franklin, aretha

my darling

oooo darling

how long i have waited for you

need your touch

love me? how much?

just trust me

we both knew this would be

darling

ohh darling

darling

you are first

your touching

ohh i'm blushing

you're my water that quenches my thirst

i felt you near

and now you're here

kissed from above

darling

this is our love

my open arms

i'm waiting here

to be held close

let go of all of your fears

my darling

ohh darling

your touching

ooooo i'm blushing

you're my water that quenches my thirst

i know who you are

i understand

i love what i see

and king of a man

unopened doors

how long i've waited for you

i need your touch
