I Can't Wait
NuShooz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My love, tell me what it's all about
You've go something that I can't live without
Happiness, is so hard to find
Hey baby, tell me what is on your mind

'Cause I can't wait (baby I can't wait) till you call me on the telephone
I can't wait (baby I can't wait) till we're all alone
You know I love you even when you don't try
I know that our love will never die
Hey darling when you look into my eye
Please tell me you'll never have to say goodbye

'Cause I can't wait (baby I can't wait) this is what I've been waiting for
I can't wait (baby I can't wait) till my love walked in the door
I can't wait (baby I can't wait) true love is so hard to find
I found yours, you found mine
I can't wait (baby I can't wait) tell me what is on your mind
Got to let you know...

I can't wait (baby I can't wait) till you call me on the telephone
I can't wait (baby I can't wait) till we're all alone
Oh oh I can't wait (baby I can't wait) true love is so hard to find
I found yours, you found mine

I can't wait (baby I can't wait) tell me what is on your mind
No, no, I can't wait (baby I can't wait)
No, I can't wait (baby I can't wait)
Say it one more time





Oh I can't wait (baby I can't wait) this is what I've been waiting for
Oh I can't wait (baby I can't wait) till my love walked in the door

I was born in 1977, this is magic to my ears. Childhood in the 80s was the absolute best.

Quite possibly one of the catchiest songs of 1983 and beyond. I never seem to get tired of this song. So many interesting and catchy elements and it just has a positive vibe.

@pauliep633

1986 this came out

@rickmitchell2973

Definitely a summer hit back in 86. Along with Sledgehammer and Who made Who. Fond memories sitting pool side in Hamilton Ont 🙂
