Wait For Me

(Wait for me, wait for me, Johnny, wait for me)

When I first met her, she was only three
And I remember how she'd follow me.
She was always getting in my way,
And I still, yes I still can hear her say-ay-ay-ay-ay,

Chorus:
"Wait for me, wait for me, Johnny, please wait for me,
I love you more than I can hardly stand.
Wait for me, wait for me, Johnny, please wait for me,
I'll grow up just as fast as I can."

(Wait for me, wait for me... )

As we grew older, she would always wait...
She'd wait for me by the schoolyard gate.
I would yell at her to go away,
And I still, yes I still can hear her say-ay-ay-ay-ay,

Chorus:
"Wait for me, wait for me, Johnny, please wait for me,
I love you more than I can hardly stand.
Wait for me, wait for me, Johnny, please wait for me,
I'll grow up just as fast as I can."

(Wait for me, wait for me...)

And now we're grown up, but she didn't wait,
And I'm in love with her, but it's too late ...
She just married someone else today,
And I still, yes I still can hear her say-ay-ay-ay-ay,

Chorus:
"Wait for me, wait for me, Johnny, please wait for me,
I love you more than I can hardly stand.
Wait for me, wait for me, Johnny, please wait for me,
I'll grow up just as fast as I can."

(Wait for me, wait for me, Johnny, wait for me...
Wait for me, wait for me... Wait for me, wait for me...)
