Here I stand waiting for you,
Trying to forget the things
That put you through
Keep in mind this heart of mine
Spreads the love that's due for you, yeah

Make my dreams a reality
For you and me
If I fall it was meant to be

Don't forget from the time we met
All the things that we've been through, yeah
And I don't neglect
With dues respect
Things I'd like to give to you, yeah

Make my dreams a reality
For you and me
If I fall it was meant to be

Oh, baby, love you so
And I don't want you to go not now, no, no
Why don't you listen to me, yeah
I'm beggin you for sympathy, sympathy, yeah

I'm still here waiting for you;
Wish I could forget the things
That put you through
Please, be kind to this heart of mine
And I can give love to you, yeah

Make my dreams a reality
For you and me
If I fall it was meant to be
Make my dreams a reality
For you and me
If I fall it was meant to be

Why don't you give me this loving, girl
And let me show you what to do with it
Why don't you listen to me, yeah
I'm begging you for sympathy, sympathy, yeah

Make my dreams a reality
For you and me
If I fall it was meant to be
Make my dreams a reality

Oh, baby, won't you stand beside me, yeah
