Paul Anka - Gimme The Word

Like a rubber band wound too tight
Streched to the limit, that's what it's like
If you've been sittin' back seein'
Just how much I can take
This is it, I'm about to break

Don't rush me honey, that's not the way
You gotta be patient if you want me to play

Like a runner waitin' for a gun
Anticipation's got me all undone

Gimme the word, you know I got to hear it
Gimme the word, gimme the word, gimme the
Gimme the word, you know I got to hear it
Gimme the green light, tonight

Spell it out,
You know I want to,
Ooh, ooh

Easy come and easy go
I really like you so I'm takin' it slow
I made up my mind from the moment we met
Only way to you was to play hard to get

When an irresistible force
Meets an immovable mountain
Something's got to give
Something's got to give
Something's got to give

I've gotta be sure in the cold light of day
You still want to know me
And you just won't walk away

Gimme the word, you know I got to hear it
Gimme the word, gimme the word, gimme the
Gimme the word, you know I got to hear it
Gimme the green light, tonight

Spell it out,
You know I want to,
Ooh, ooh

Gimme the word, you know I got to hear it
Gimme the word, gimme the word, gimme the
Gimme the word, you know I got to hear it
Gimme the green light

Spell it out,
You know I want to,
Ooh, ooh

Spell it out,
You know I want to,
Ooh, ooh

Spell it out,
You know I want to,
Ooh, ooh

Spell it out,
You know I want to,
Ooh, ooh …
