Wait - Bettye LaVette

Wait Lyrics

It's been a long time
Now I'm coming back home
I've been away now
Oh, how I've been aloneWait 'til I come back to your side
We'll forget the tears we've criedBut if your heart breaks
Don't wait, turn me away
And if your heart's strong
Hold on, I won't delayWait 'til I come back to your side
We'll forget the tears we've criedI feel as though
You ought to know
That I've been good
As good as I can beAnd if you do
I'll trust in you
And know that you
Will wait for meIt's been a long time
Now I'm coming back home
I've been away now
Oh, how I've been aloneWait 'til I come back to your side

We'll forget the tears we've criedI feel as though
You ought to know
That I've been good
As good as I can beAnd if you do
I'll trust in you
And know that you
Will wait for meBut if your heart breaks
Don't wait, turn me away
And if your heart's strong
Hold on, I won't delayWait 'til I come back to your side
We'll forget the tears we've criedIt's been a long time
Now I'm coming back home
I've been away now
Oh, how I've been alone
