Lyrics I'll Wait (8/25/48) - Dinah Washington

I'll Wait (8/25/48)

If you happen to be late for our usual Sunday date
Don’t hurry, don’t worry, I’ll wait
Yes, I’ll wait a long, long while for your wonderful sunny smile
It’s funny, but honey, I’ll wait
You’ve been showing up late ever since we met
Is it to impress me that you’re hard to get?
It seems you always make it
That’s the reason why I take it
Surely, I can well afford hanging 'round
When my sweet reward is you
You know it’s true, I’ll wait
You’ve been showing up late ever since we met
Is it to impress me that you’re hard to get?
Well, it seems you always make it
I guess, that’s the reason why I take it
Ooh, surely, I can well afford hanging 'round
When my sweet reward is you
You know it’s true, I’ll wait
Is you, you know it’s true, I’ll wait
