Wait
(disgrace)
I know I shouldn't, but we'll wait
(such a pretty face)
I know the time is getting late
(... such a waste)
And here is what you hesitate
(such a pretty face)
But still I really wish that you'd wait
(... such a waste)
Although the passion might abate
(such a pretty face)
And find you in another state
(it's such a state)
That will seem just as a mistake
(it's such a waste)
Oh baby, I really think that I oughta wait
(such a pretty face)
Wait
(it was such a waste)
I really wouldn't want your hate
(it's such a pretty face)
Certainly not after like late
(... such a waste)
You wanna give not only take
(it's such a pretty face)
I know propriety is such a waste
(it's such a disgrace)
But then it says you really have to wait
(such a pretty face)
Considering the present state
(... such a waste)
Don't change my mind at such a late stage
(... such a waste)
Oh baby, don't you think you oughta wait
(such a pretty face)
Ooohhh ...
Ooohhh ...
Ooohhh ...
Ooohhh ...
Wait
Oh, now baby, how I wish you would wait
I really wish you'd hesitate
Oh, baby, baby please why don't you wait
Oh, how I really wish you'd wait
Oh, how I wish you'd hesitate
...
...
(... someday)
