I've been waiting, I've been watching every move you make

And when I see that look in your eyes, it's more than I can take

Now I know it's all for him, reminding me what might have been

But I let you walk away, yeah

Heaven knows it ain't been easy, but in my heart I know you need me

Back in your arms again, baby

I'll be there when it's over

After he's gone and your world comes to an end

I'll be there when it's over

You'll never cry again, you'll never cry again

You were helpless, I was heartless, on those times I hurt you

Now I'm the one who feels the pain, 'cause there's no life at all without you

I can't accept the truth

Just knowing that he's touching you is more than I can bear

No one else can really love you like I can, so let me show you

Just how much I care

I'll be there when it's over

After he's gone and your world comes to an end

I'll be there when it's over

You'll never cry again, you'll never cry again

You were helpless, I was heartless, on those times I hurt you

Now I'm the one who feels the pain, 'cause there's no life at all without you

I can't accept the truth

Just knowing that he's touching you is more than I can bear

No one else can really love you like I can, so let me show you

Just how much I care

(Instrumental break)

Even though I know it's crazy

I've been holding on and they say time will heal the pain, yeah

Heaven knows it ain't been easy

But somehow I just know you'll need me back in your arms again, baby

chorus

(I'll be there when it's over)
