I Can't Wait
Marie Osmond Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

An honest sun pouring through my window
Dancing across my face
You're still asleep I watch you breathe
It's almost more than I can take
My hearts racing, in anticipation
Because I can't get enough, I can't get enough of this feeling

I can't wait to love you; I can't wait to love you
With all of my body and soul, and I'm totally letting go
And I can't wait to love you; I can't wait to love you
I feel you pulling me in
And it's starting all over again, and I can't wait

The sound of waves crashing all around us
On the Santa Monica pier
You still are wet against the sunset; there is no better place than here
Just want to hold you the way that you want me to
Because I can't get enough, I can't get enough of this feeling

I can't wait to love you; I can't wait to love you

With all of my body and soul, I'm totally letting go
And I can't wait to love you; I can't wait to love you
I feel you pulling me in
And it's starting all over again, and I can't wait
I'm wrapped up in you, feeling your heart beat next to mine
Baby it gets better all the time, yeah

I can't wait to love you; I can't wait to love you
With all of my body and soul, I'm totally letting go
And I can't wait to love you; I can't wait to love you
I feel you pulling me in
It's starting all over again, and I can't wait
And I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait
I can't wait to love you; I can't wait to love you





With all of my body and soul, I can't wait

I was just thinking about this skit over this past weekend. I'm glad that you posted this in honor of Betty White. She was naturally sweet and sassy in this and anytime she was on TV.
