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.”

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.”

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.”
