You and I made mistakes

We've been in and out of arguments

And said some things we didn't mean to say, wait

This time, you're not the one to blame

Sometimes I get a little too afraid

I didn't mean to cause you any pain

So wait (Wait)

Ah, wait, darling (Wait)

Before you go and throw our love away

Can I get a minute to explain?

Now wait (Wait)

Ah, think about it (Wait)

Before you turn around and walk away

Baby, how can I get you to stay?

Now wait

Now I've been caught with me heart out

Time and time again, holdin' on, why?

Boy, you know I'm so alone, I

I just need a friend

And you've been so good to me

I don't wanna miss a real good thing

Wait (Wait)

Ah, wait, darling (Wait)

Before you go and throw our love away

Can I get a minute to explain?

So wait (Wait)

Ah, think about it (Wait)

Before you turn around and walk away

Baby, how can I get you to stay?

Now wait

You don't know what you do to me

Baby, won't you sit and talk to me?

No, it doesn't have to be this way

Darling, I'm just wanting you to stay

You don't know what you do to me

Baby, won't you sit and talk to me?

No, it doesn't have to be this way

Darling, I'm just wanting you to stay

So stay (Wait, wait)

So wait (Wait)

Ah, think about it, baby (Wait)

Before you turn around and walk away

Baby, how can I get you to stay?

Now wait (Wait, wait)

Gotta wait, gotta wait, boo (Wait, wait)

I'm just asking you to wait on me

Please wait

Ooh, please wait, baby

Please wait, please wait, please wait
