lyrics

Dear Susan
I’ve been waiting just for you
Thinking ‘bout the night we met
And can’t forget, so now I

Wait for the thunder
Wait for the lightning to strike me

Dear Susan
Love is not too far away
I’ll be waiting to connect
So call collect, you know I

Wait for the thunder
Wait for the lightning to strike me once again
Wait for the thunder
Wait for the lightning to strike me

I’ve been trying to get you off my mind
But that don’t work, so I just quit trying
And decided to drop you this line
To tell you I’ll be waiting
I keep on waiting

Wait for the thunder
Wait for the lightning to strike me
Once again
