How long you been waitin'
For somebody to love you
How long you been waitin'
For somebody to care
How long you been waitin'
For somebody to tell you
How long you been waitin'
For someone to be there

Chorus:
All you gotta do
Is ask that lovin' man in
All you gotta do is
Ask that lovin' man in

How long you been waitin'
My friend, to be free
How long you been waitin'
Well about as long as me
How long you been waitin'
For somebody to say
How long you been waitin'
For someone to show you the way

[Repeat Chorus]

Now my waiting is over
True love came to me
Now my waiting is over
Jesus set me free
Now my waiting is over
He's given me everything
Now my waiting is over
That's why I can sing

Chorus:
All I had to do
Was ask that lovin' man in
All I had to do
Was ask that lovin' man in
All I had to do
Was ask that lovin' man into my heart
