Make Him Wait
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When he calls you
You don't have to answer right away
Make him wait
And when he small talks
Before he asks you on a date
Make him wait
When his Pontiac's in the driveway
And his eyes are midnight blue
Take a deep breath
Do the opposite of what you wanna do
Make him wait
By the phone
At the door to meet your dad
Before the first kiss, he's gotta hold your hand
You can't get it back when you give yourself away
A boy's gonna run, but a real man's gonna stay
Girl, make him wait
Make him wait
When he says that
It'd be easier if you just stay the night
Make him wait
You're gonna wanna
And you're thinkin you just might
But make him wait
Make him wait
By the phone
At the door to meet your dad
Before the first kiss, he's gotta hold your hand
You can't get it back when you give yourself away
A boy's gonna run, but a real man's gonna stay
Girl, make him wait
Make him wait
They told me love is worth the weight in gold
Like that ring on your hand
So when you find the one
The staying kind
Then he won't mind
If you make him wait
In his tux
Cello sings you down the aisle
Walk slow, take your time
While your daddy cries and your mama smiles
When they're throwin rice into the air
And those tin cans roll away
And you look into his eyes
And realize it was worth the while
To make him wait
Make him wait
