Wait

Lavette Bettye

It's been a long time
And now I'm comin' back home
I've been away now
But oh, I'm, I'm comin' home
Wait till I come back to your side
Will forgive the tears that we cry

But if your heart breaks
Don't wait, turn me away
And if your heart's strong
Hold on, I wanted you wait
Oh, wait

Till I come back to your side
We'll forget about the tears we cried
I feel as though you oughta know
That I've been just as good as I can be
And if you do...
I will trust in you
And know you'll wait for me

But if your heart breaks!
Don't wait
Gone and turn me away
And if you're heart's strong
Hold on, I wanted you wait

Till I come back to your side
We'll forget about the tears we cried
It's been a long time 
Now I'm comin' back home
I've been away now, but oh, I'll
I've been alone
