F#                     C#
I want a man who will call me baby
B               D#m             C#      F#
In the light of day and in the dark of night
 F#                   C#
When the stars shine for the taking
        D#m           C#
And the kind of love, kind of love
                F#
It’s worth the wait

     F#          C#         F#               B
The petals fall year after year as time goes on
D#m                C#          F#
We will search in vain and in fear for the comfort
B
of
      D#m       C#            F#
That fairytale alchemist who makes our weakness
   B
strong
    D#m              C#          F#
And we mistake this fantasy for love

   D#m              C#
But I don’t need a man
     F#            B
Who doesn’t understand
     D#m            C#               F#
The difference separating need and trust

Chorus:
       F#                     C#
‘Cause I want a man who will call me baby
B               D#m             C#      F#
In the light of day and in the dark of night
 F#                   C#
When the stars shine for the taking
B              D#m      C#
And my good is his and his good is
 F#                 C#
Mine is a heart of love that never fades
 B            D#m      C#         B   B
His a courage far too rare these days
             D#m     D#m   C#
And it’s the kind of lo-o-ove,
               F#     C#     B
It's worth the wa-a-a-a-a-a-ait
      D#m   C# F#     C#     B   D#m C#
It's worth the wa-a-a-a-a-a-ait

You don’t have to be hopeless
To be hopeless romantic
Desperation only intervenes
In giving we receive
Beyond what we believe
Love will come
Will you be ready?

Chorus:
Will you be ready for a man who will call you baby
In the light of day and in the dark of night
When the stars shine for the taking
My good is his and his good is mine
Is a heart of love that never fades
His a courage far too rare these days
It’s the kind of love, kind of love
Worth the wait
Worth the wait

(It’s worth the wait; it’s worth the wait)
