Right Here Waiting

Right Here Waiting by Richard Marx (born September 16, 1963) was the second album from Repeat Offender released in 1989, after his first album Satisfied. He wrote the song on the road as a love letter to his wife, actress Cynthia Rhodes who is seven years his senior when she was in South Africa shooting for a film.

After a four-year courtship, the couple married on January 8, 1989 and Rhodes retired from film acting, dancing and singing to become stay-at-home mother to the couple's three sons in Lake Bluff, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago.

Once again, a true-life story that mark of a true love waits and no else matters.

Finding true love lasts neither overnight nor a whole lifetime.

There's no telling when your soul mate will pass your very eyes, 

catching your glance, trigger that tiny slumbering spark inside your heart 

and fuel that long awaited feeling to bud. 

Waiting may bring you the feeling of frustration 

but you'll realize every idle moment spent is sensible 

once you landed in the arms of that person.

RIGHT HERE WAITING - Richard Marx

Oceans apart day after day

And I slowly go insane

I hear your voice on the line

But it doesn't stop the pain

If I see you next to never

How can we say forever

Wherever you go

Whatever you do

I will be right here waiting for you

Whatever it takes

Or how my heart breaks

I will be right here waiting for you

I took for granted, all the times

That I thought would last somehow

I hear the laughter, I taste the tears

But I can't get near you now

Oh, can't you see it baby

You've got me going crazy

Wherever you go

Whatever you do

I will be right here waiting for you

Whatever it takes

Or how my heart breaks

I will be right here waiting for you

(Waiting for you)

I wonder how we can survive

This romance

But in the end if I'm with you

I'll take the chance
