Terry Lynn Ellis, born September 5, 1963 in Houston, Texas, USA, is an African-American R&B singer. After receiving a degree in Marketing from Prarie View A & M University, she joined En Vogue.

I Don't Want To Wait 'Till Tomorrow
Terry Ellis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Talking on the phone boy, you know it?s so nice
But I need your warm body next to me, to share what?s inside
I enjoy your conversation; you know it?s alright,
But if you can?t be there, then I?ll find someone who can
I don?t want to wait till tomorrow
I don?t want to wait till tomorrow
Another day is too long, when some love is what I want
I want to feel your body, holding me tight
'cause I need some warmth and tenderness, to share what?s inside
All your love and company, its you that I like
And if you can?t be there, then I?ll find someone who can
I don?t want to wait till tomorrow
'cause I?ve waited too long, and this feeling is so strong
I don?t want to wait till tomorrow
Another day is too long, when some love is what I want
I want the touching, Touching
And the holding, Holding
Ooh baby that feeling, Feeling
The magic deep inside, Deep Inside
The touching, Touch Me
And the holding, Ooh Hold Me
When I feel your love, If you come tonight
I don?t want to wait till tomorrow
'cause I?ve waited too long, and this feeling is so strong
I don?t want to wait till tomorrow
Another day is too long, when some love is what I want
I need someone to hold me tight
Make me feel alright
Baby can you come tonight
Wipe away my tears
Whisper words in my ears
This passion can?t wait
I can?t take another day
I need some pleasing and some squeezing
Some ecstasies and energy
I want the touching, Ooh Touch Me
And the holding, Hold Me
Ooh baby that feeling, Feel Me
The magic deep inside, Ooh
I want the touching, Bedside
And the holding, Hold me
Ooh baby that feeling, The magic deep inside.
I got love for you baby, Ooh yeah
Come on, Come on
-Morena
