I Know Because You Told Me So
How long do I have to wait?
How long do I have to want
How long do I have to love?
How long do I have to cry?
Before you bring me what I need
Before you come and hold me close
Before you kiss me tenderly
Before you are really here with me
How many days and nights
How many hours and minutes
How many thoughts and dreams
How many moments must I wait?
Until I feel the warmth of your breath
Until I feel your sweet caress
Until I feel you touch my soul
Until you're here and make me whole
No matter how long it has to be
Before I know you'll be with me
How many miles you have to come
Until you're here in my embrace
I can wait as long as I must
You've given me faith and hope
You gave me love without reserve
And I promise you I will hold on
Until you come to me, my love,
Until I feel your gentle touch
And feel your kisses touch my soul
And we will make each other whole
Because I know you really will
I feel it in my heart and soul
The things you told me will come true
I know because I love you so
I know because you told me so
