The next in line will be someone who loves you.
The next in line is me, cause it's my time.
Now how long will it be?
I tell you in my misery,
you better be prepared to linger.
When you get to me,
the time has come for you to love me.
If you ever are,
come to me now so I can make you mine.
I watched them rush to you so fast,
I waited so I'd be the last.
It's my time, cause I'm the next in line.
The next in line will want your love forever.
The next in line is me, and here I am.
Give me a day or two,
and I'll get through to you.
You'd have been my baby
long ago, if you'd turned out a few.
This old heart can't take much more waiting for your love.
I'm tired and we're running short of time.
I'll make you love me more than everyone before.
It's my time to try, cause I'm the next in line.
I stood and watched you take their hearts and break them one by one.
My time was coming,
so I waited while you had your fun.
I'm through waiting way behind.
It's my time, cause I'm the next in line.
