I know that you could be tempted
To stray while I'm away


But, baby, wait, wait, wait
My darling, wait, wait, wait
Wait for me, wait for me


I know that you'll be lonely
Every night I'm out of sight


But, baby, wait, wait, wait
My darling, wait, wait, wait

Wait for me, wait for me

I'll be returning

To kiss once again
To hold you once again
To love you once again


I know you're yearning
To go out now and then

But, darling, just wait
A little longer


So, baby, please
Please be true
Cause I'll be true, true to you


My darling, wait, wait, wait
Baby, wait, wait, wait

Wait for me, wait for me
Wait for me, wait for me
