  • 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 cryin', I'm dyin'

    Oh, I'm waiting in the storm, ask me how I feel
    But 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 cryin', I'm dyin'

    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, oh, 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
    Oh

    I'm waiting in the storm, come on and 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'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
    Oh

    I'm waiting in the storm, ask me how I feel
    When things are going wrong, come on and ask me how I feel
    The night is awful cold, ask me how I feel
    You're much too loose to hold, come on and ask me how I feel
    Oh, I'm waiting in the storm, ask me how I feel
    When things are going wrong, come on and ask me how I feel
    The night is awful cold, ask me how I feel
    You're much too loose to hold, you never ask me how I feel
    Oh, I'm waiting in the storm, ask me how I feel
    When things are going wrong, come on and ask me how I feel
    The night is awful cold, ask me how I feel Writer/s: Albert Hammond, Holly Knight
