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
