WAIT (By Lennon/McCartney, 1965. Sung by John and Paul).

It's been a long time

now I'm coming back home

I've been away now

oh how I've been alone.

 

Wait till I come back to your side

we'll forget the tears we cried

but if your heart breaks

don't wait, turn me away

and if your heart's strong

hold on, I won't delay.

 

Wait till I come back to your side

we'll forget the tears we cried

I feel as though you ought to know

that I've been good, as good as I can be

and if you do, I'll trust in you

and know that you will wait for me.

 

It's been a long time

now I'm coming back home

I've been away now

oh how I've been alone.

 

Wait till I come back to your side

we'll forget the tears we cried

I feel as though you ought to know

that I've been good, as good as I can be

and if you do, I'll trust in you

and know that you will wait for me.

 

But if your heart breaks

don't wait, turn me away

and if your heart's strong

hold on, I won't delay.

 

Wait till I come back to your side

we'll forget the tears we cried

it's been a long time now

I'm coming back home

I've been away now

oh how I've been alone.
