1. One of… Read Full Bio ↴There is at least three bands / artists called Loose Ends.
1. One of the top British dance and urban contemporary trios in the early 1980s, Loose Ends formed in London, United Kingdom. They were originally called Loose End and included Carl McIntosh, Jane Eugene and Steve Nichol. Virgin signed them in 1981, and their début was written by Chris and Eddie Amoo. The group changed its name to Loose Ends in 1983 and signed with MCA in America in 1984. Their single 'Hanging on a String (Contemplating)' topped the R&B charts in 1985, and they repeated that achievement in 1986 with 'Slow Down'. Their last hit was 'Watching You' in 1988, which reached number two. The group shuffled its line-up in 1990 for the release of the album, Look How Long, with McIntosh now joined by Linda Carriere and Sunay Suleyman. McIntosh also produced several artists, notably Caron Wheeler.
2. Formed in Bexley Heath, Kent, United Kingdom, in late 1963, Loose Ends were led by singer Alan Marshall. By the time they landed a semi-residency at the Mayfair club, The Scotch of St. James (in February 1966) the group had signed to Decca. A July 1966 début single ('Send The People Away' b/w 'I Ain't Gonna Eat Out My Heart Anymore') while the group's soulful rendition of George Harrison's 'Taxman' curiously came out on 5 August 1966, the same day The Beatles' version came out on their 'Revolver' LP. The band fell apart in the autumn of 1966. Marshall assembled a new Loose Ends (with the aid of a Croydon band called The Subjects), while keyboardist Roy Davies and bassist Dave Collman formed a rival line-up, almost inevitably called New Loose Ends.
3. Loose Ends was an early / mid 1980s influenced hardcore punk band from central New Jersey, NJ. United States. Their first EP, 'Cut Loose', was released in 2011.
I Can't Wait Another Minute
Loose Ends Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Another minute
For your love
Sit here reminiscing
Thinking about the love I'm missing
Thinking of another
Baby whether you could be my lover
Nothing's getting better
Why aren't you here
Oh my dear
It's a part time love affair
When she's not with you I am there
Your heart never seems to change
Is this a never ending game
I can't wait
Another minute
For your love
Looking through my window
I see the love is passing
In my heart I'm dreaming
Wishing that you could be with me
I know you have another
Well I can't spend another night like this
It's a part time love affair
When she's not with you I am there
Your heart never seems to change
Is this a never ending game
I can't wait
Another minute
For your love

I can't wait
I am unable to continue waiting
Another minute
I can't keep waiting any longer than I already have
For your love
I am longing for your love
Sit here reminiscing
I am lost in thoughts of the past
Thinking about the love I'm missing
Reflecting on the love that I don't currently have
Thinking of another
Contemplating the possibility of another lover
Baby whether you could be my lover
Considering whether or not you would be willing to be my lover
Time is passing slowly
The time is dragging on slowly and painfully
Nothing's getting better
There has been no improvement in the situation
Why aren't you here
I am wondering why you aren't here with me
Oh my dear
Expressing endearment for the person I am addressing
Looking through my window
I am gazing through the windowpane
I see the love is passing
I can perceive love going by
In my heart I'm dreaming
In my heart, I am dreaming of love
Wishing that you could be with me
Hoping that you could join me
I know you have another
I am aware that you are involved with someone else
Well I can't spend another night like this
I cannot bear to endure another night like this
It's a part time love affair
When she's not with you I am there
Our love affair is only part-time, and when she is not around, I take her place
Your heart never seems to change
Your heart always stays the same
Is this a never ending game
I am questioning whether this is an endless cycle of love and heartbreak
