Love Don't Wait
Franti Michael & Spearhead Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me the truth one time
Is there a chance that mornin' to dance could come from you (ooh)
And tell me the truth one time
Is there a chance that little romance could come from you (ooh)
Im goin' crazy
Im goin' crazy crazy crazy thinkin' about your sweet lovin'
So tell me the truth one time (truth one time)
Is there a chance that mornin' to dance could come from you (yooou)

[Chorus]
'Cause it's so easy, it's easy, to be with you (just to be with you), just to be with you
And I said, love don't wait for nobody (you know love, you know love, is a precious thing too)
Love don't wait for nobody (but love can break your heart in two now)
Love don't wait for nobody (nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah)
But I'll be waitin' right here for you

I like the way you dance (the way you do what you do what you do what you do what you do...)
If you look in my eye and tell me that love, it aint never a part of your life again, then I'll tell you you're wrong (uh huh)
And if you look in my heart and you tell me my love, it aint never a part of your life again, then I'll tell you I'm gone (uh huh)

[Chorus]
'Cause it's so easy, it's easy, to be with you (just to be with you), just to be with you
And I said, love don't wait for nobody (you know love, you know love, is a precious thing too)
Love don't wait for nobody (but love can break your heart in two now)
Love don't wait for nobody (nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah)
But I'll be waitin' right here for you

I wanna see you rock, see you dance
See you rock, see you dance
I wanna see you rock, see you dance
See you rock, dance

So tell me the truth one time, is there a chance that mornin' to dance could come from you
'Cause I know, love don't wait for nobody (you know love, you know love, is a precious thing too)
Love don't wait for nobody (but love can break your heart in two now)
Love don't wait for nobody (nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah)
But I'll be waitin' right here for you

'Cause it's so easy, it's easy, to be with you (just to be with you), just to be with you
And I said, love don't wait for nobody
Love don't wait for nobody




Love don't wait for nobody
But I'll be waitin' right here for you
