Lyrics Don't Wait Up - Colin Hay

Don't Wait Up

Don’t wait up
For her tonight
Cause she won’t be coming home
Don’t wake up
Till it gets light
By then she’ll be long gone
A restless heart has set it’s sail
She can feel the waves washing over
She knows what life with you entails
You love her strength you despise your weakness
Don’t wait up
For her tonight
Cause she won’t be coming home
Don’t wake up
Till it gets light
The dogs are scratching at the door
Your jealous heart has won the day
You can feel the darkness creeping over
She paid the man and sailed away
Leaving you your incompleteness
