Don't Make Me 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.
If it's only 'cause you're waiting
If it's ever in your mind
If it's ever meant to happen
If it's just a waste of time
If you think it might be wonderful
But you feel you have to fight
Is it gonna take a miracle
To make love to you tonight
Chorus:
Don't make me wait, take some time for love
Don't make me wait, take this moment in the night
Don't make me wait, take some time for love
Don't make me wait, let's make love tonight
If it's only feeling guilty
If it's just a case of fright
If you think it's something filthy
Something evil in the night
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
If it's love it's so sweet and gentle
When you're making love in the night
If it's love it's so very simple
Hold on! Hold on!
Repeat Chorus
