One too many times
I fell over you
Once in a shadow
I finally grew
And once in a night
I dreamed you were there
I canceled my flight
From going nowhere
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
One too many times
I twisted the gate
When I was crazy
I thought you were great
I kept my renditions
Of you on the wall
Where holiday romance
Is nothing at all
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
You wait in the wing
Like a Saturday flirt
Protecting the judge
You don't want to get hurt
And once in a moment
It all comes to you
As soon as you get it
You want something new
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
I fell over you
Once in a shadow
I finally grew
And once in a night
I dreamed you were there
I canceled my flight
From going nowhere
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
One too many times
I twisted the gate
When I was crazy
I thought you were great
I kept my renditions
Of you on the wall
Where holiday romance
Is nothing at all
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
You wait in the wing
Like a Saturday flirt
Protecting the judge
You don't want to get hurt
And once in a moment
It all comes to you
As soon as you get it
You want something new
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do

This is a blast from the past! I think it was 1977, I took a girlfriend to the Speakeasy Club in London, and lo The Cars did a surprise set.

I never realized until watching Cars clips playing live that Ben sang so many of their songs, him and Ocasek have very similar voices but didn't realize that Ben could just as easily be called the front man as Ocasek.

Perfect blend of synth and guitar.

One of their very finest and always welcome here. Thank you
Never having been a commercial radio listener, other than a brief spell with a FM Atlanta 99X-something in the 90's, I could very well not have heard this one since its record's release, whenever that was way back 70s when. It was a terrific reminder of why we fell instantly in love with The Cars at first note.
Memory of standing in a record store in Eugene Oregon in the summer of 1978. This song comes on overhead and everything stops. Music sears memory.
Love, love, love this one
a deep track I had forgotten about... THX!
Benjamin Orr and Ric Ocasek certainly had a groovy sound going on in the 80s. I have countless memories of good times rolling to their music
Pure, pitch perfect POP.
(Happily) Surprised to hear this here!
No way! This is one of many enjoyable Cars tunes!
