Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Sunny days keepin' the clouds away I think we're coming to a clearing and a brighter day So far away. Still I think they say The wait will make the heart grow stronger or fonder I can't quite remember anyway So if you're waitin' for love Well it's a promise I'll keep If you don't mind believing that it changes everything Then time will never matter Winter, Spring, is what love can truly bring Ice turns to water, water flows to everything You can lose your mind, maybe then your heart you'll find I hope you won't give up what's moving you inside If the car won't start, when you turn the key When the music comes on, all your cold, cold heart can do is skip a beat It's a promise I'll keep When you're waitin' for love If you don't mind believing that it changes everything Then time will never matter
