Lyrics Don't Wait for Me - The Monkees

Don't Wait for Me

Don’t wait for me… I'll be a long time comin'
Unless by then, you have told me something
To show how much you care
I’ve done much more than as a man I should have
Why did you… not do all you could have… to show
How much you care?
Over and again I’ve wondered was I wrong
Kept thinkin' that I maybe shoulda come along
But there comes a time in every man’s life
When he must be strong
And my time’s come
And if you’re gone
Then I guess I’ll cry and hold to memories
Of «what might have beens»
And when I finally leave
That will show how much I care
