Sometimes, I'm only waiting for your smile
Sometimes, I'll only wait a while
Sometimes, a feeling makes me wanna cry
Tell me why

Sometimes, I'm fooling, playing for my time
Sometimes, the days are always fine
Sometimes, a cloudburst puts me outta line
It's a crime

There's always tomorrow, end of your sorrow and pain
(Oo pain, sorrow and pain)
(Oo pain, sorrow and pain)
Always a reason, always believed in my soul (my soul)

[guitar solo (Pete Ham)]

There's always tomorrow, the end of your sorrow and pain
(Oo pain, sorrow and pain)
(Oo pain, sorrow and pain)
Always a reason, always believed in my soul (my soul)

Yeah, sometimes, I'm only waiting for your smile
Sometimes, I'll only wait a while
Sometimes, a feeling makes me wanna cry
Tell me why

Gotta find out why (why why)
Tell me why
Find out why
