I've always been there every time he let you down
I caught your falling tears before they hit the ground
But I just heard somebody say that you finally told him goodbye
Well, girl now you've finally made your move, now I'm here to make mine

I wanna be there when you wake up
Be more than just an ol' friend
Baby, there's no mistaking
You're the love I wanna be in, oh yeah

I've kept my feelings under lock and key
Couldn't let you see them even though it was killing me
You can't imagine all the time I spent wishing you were mine
I just know if we ever kissed, we'd go crazy, baby, for the rest of our lives

I wanna be there when you wake up
Be more than just an ol' friend
Baby, there's no mistaking
You're the love I wanna be in

Well, I wanna be there when you wake up
Be more than just an ol' friend
Baby, there's no mistaking
You're the love I wanna be in

I wanna be there when you wake up
Be more than just an ol' friend
Baby, there's no mistaking
You're the love I wanna be in
You're the love I wanna be in, oh yeah

I wanna be there when you wake up
