oh i’m waiting in the storm ask me how i feel
when things are going wrong why don’t you ask me how i feel
the night is awful cold ask me how i feel
you’re much too loose to hold why don’t you ask me how i feel

i close my eyes to follow you
to my surprise you’re so untrue
and i’m crying i’m dying

oh i’m waiting in the storm ask me how i feel
when you keep me hanging on why don’t you ask me how i feel
the waters run so deep ask me how i feel
when i don’t get any sleep why don’t you ask me how i feel

and when you’re down you lean on me
you’re a fool too blind to see
that i’m crying i’m dying

oh i’m waiting in the storm why don’t you ask me how i feel
what the hell is going on why don’t you ask me how i feel
when you stay out late at night ask me how i feel
when you think that i’m uptight why don’t you ask me how i feel oh

you don’t treat me tender no matter what i do
but i'm the great pretender woah ho ho ho

i’m waiting in the storm ask me how i feel
what the hell is going on
when you stay out late at night you never ask me how i feel
you just say that i'm uptight
when you're down i do for you
and now i find that you're untrue
