She's got every right
To wait until her heart has healed
To wait until her heart has healed
Inch by inch, she gets a little closer to me
She's got every right
Every night, every night
I'm here and I'm gonna hold her
And when she's ready
Oh, every night
But every night
She cries just a little bit less
She's takin' time off from love
And every night
She's mad that she ever loved him
Oh, she cries just a little
To wait until her heart has healed
She tries just a little bit more
She's a little worried to jump right in
She cries just a little bit less
She ain't in a hurry to try again
She's through and she's had enough of him
And when she's ready
She tries just a little bit more
Every night
Our love will grow, we're makin' it day by day
Inch by inch, she gets a little closer to me
Inch by inch, she gets a little closer to me
I'm here and I'm gonna hold her
Every night
Because I know, she's worth the time it's takin'
I'm here and I'm gonna hold her
But it's true, he's gonna take some time gettin' over
She cries just a little bit less
And when she's ready
She's got every right
No one could blame her if she holds out
She tries just a little bit more
She tries just a little bit more
But I don't mind the waitin'
