Well tonight she came home early 
And she watched TV alone
Lately the nightlife doesn't do much for her
It's not that she's not pretty
She could have brought some cowboy home
But the last time that she did, it only bored her

Well she's tired of crowded places
Singles bars and strangers faces
And she knows there's something missing in her life

It's time for love she's had enough romance
It's time for love, she's tired of one-night stands
Anyone can see she's waited long enough
It's time for love she's had her moonlight nights
It's time for love, she's tired of neon lights
She's had everything else but now it's time for love

So she sits down at her mirror 
And she brushes out her hair 
She thinks about the men that she's let hold her
There were some that took her dancing, 
There were some that took her home 
But no-one ever took the time to know her 

And as the tears start falling, 
There's a voice inside her calling 
And she knows there must be something more than this.

It's time for love she's had enough romance
It's time for love, she's tired of one-night stands
Anyone can see she's waited long enough
It's time for love she's had her moonlight nights
It's time for love, she's tired of neon lights
She's had everything else but now it's time for love
