Wait Songtext
von Lou Reed

Wait (disgrace)
I know I shouldn′t, but we'll wait (such a pretty face)
I know the time is getting late (such a waste)
And here is what you hesitate (such a pretty face)
But still, I really wish that you′d wait (such a waste)
Although the passion might abate (such a pretty face)
And find you in another state (it's such a state)
That will seem just as a mistake (it's such a waste)
Oh baby, I really think that I oughta wait (such a pretty face)


Wait (it was such a waste)
I really wouldn′t want your hate (it′s such a pretty face)
Certainly not after like late (such a waste)
You wanna give, not only take (it's such a pretty face)
I know propriety is such a waste (it′s such a disgrace)
But then it says you really have to wait (such a pretty face)
Considering the present state (such a waste)
Don't change my mind at such a late stage (such a waste)
Oh baby, don′t you think you oughta wait (such a pretty face)

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

Wait
Oh, now baby, how I wish you would wait
I really wish you'd hesitate
Oh, baby, baby please, why don′t you wait
Oh, how I really wish you'd wait
Oh, how I wish you'd hesitate
Oh, now baby, how I wish you would wait
Don′t you know I should wait
I really want you to wait
There′s someone who would want you to wait

I really want you to wait
Oh, baby, baby, someday
