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 

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
