Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Hold your body)
(Hold your body, ah)
Don't make me wait
(Hold your body, ah)
Don't make me wait
With your body so close to mine
'Cause when I feel oh, so warm inside
Is that love that you, I need to show
I could give in, surrender, surrender
Come on, baby, you know it's alright
I could give in, surrender, surrender
Come on, baby, you know it's alright
Baby, don't make me wait
Don't let me stay in and out of love
Baby, don't make me wait
Don't let me stay in and out of love
With your heartbeat so close to mine
I begin to feel my passion grow
A new love is so hard to find
So why won't you be my Romeo?
I could give in, surrender, surrender
Come on, baby, you know it's alright
I could give in, surrender, surrender
Come on, baby, you know it's alright
Baby, don't make me wait
Don't let me stay in and out of love
Baby, don't make me wait
Don't let me stay in and out of love
Kid Dynamite, come on, break it down
(Hold your body)
(Hold your body)
Give a little time, baby, and you'll be mine
I know you'll be mine
Baby, don't make me wait
Don't let me stay in and out of love
Baby, don't make me wait
Don't let me stay in and out of love
Come on, baby, come on, baby
Come on, baby, now
Please don't make me wait
Baby, don't make me wait
Oh, it's not too late
Don't let me stay in and out of love
Just gimme a little time
Baby, don't make me wait
And, baby, you'll be mine
Don't let me stay in and out of love
Baby, don't make me wait
You know, you gotta surrender, surrender
Don't let me stay in and out of love
Come on, baby
Baby, don't make me wait
Drive me crazy
Don't let me stay in and out of love
Yeah, yeah

Hard to believe that Tim Simenon was only 17 or so and this was his first album. I was about the same age at the time and a country boy from Victoria, Australia. This album was a part of musical awakening. There was no internet, just the crap played on the local radio station. I moved to Melbourne, started buying imports from Central Station and the rest as they say, is history. Thanks Tim

Fellow Melbournian here. l remember hearing this and Cookie Crew Rok Da House at Inflations downstair circa 1990 and also bought the LP from Central Station Records on Flinders Street. Good times.

@gra foeh if you're too remedial to follow the chat, then ask the nearest adult to explain the relevance to you, ms keyboard warrior.
@epineh
Similar story for me, regional fnq and saw this on Rage, missing the intro, thought the song was called surrender, didn't find it for years later, happy I did :)

The late 80s song that sounds like an early 80s song which still sounds awesome in 2022. Genius!!!
@ndrinks5550
Tim Simenon is never given enough recognition for the magic he did himself and inspired in others, without his lead so many tunes and bands would simply never have existed.
