Wait

She came from the wrong side of town
 She crossed the tracks and then she turned around
 Alone and restless
 Left without a choice
 She sought the comfort in a friendly voice
 To survive she sold herself away
 Every night and almost every day
 Alone and restless
 Left without a choice
 She sought the comfort in a friendly voice
 I said wait (x2)
 Said give love a chance
 The morning when you wake up
 The sun will dance
 She nearly lost herself along the way
 So full of anger in a world of hate
 She'd walk the streets at night all alone
 No one to turn to
 No place called home
 Our worlds collided one summer day
 I gave her hope and a place to stay
 Alone and restless
 Left without a choice
 She found the comfort in a friendly voice
 I said wait (x2)
 Said give love a chance
 The morning when you wake up
 The sun will dance (x2)
 I said wait, oh, and I'll return (x2)
 I said wait, oh, and I'll return (x4)
 She came from the wrong side of town
 And through the pain she turned her eyes around
 When everyone seemed to put her down
 She caught herself before she hit the ground
 Now so alive she once was dead
 She gathered strength and walked the road ahead
 Alone and restless
 Left without a choice
 She found the comfort in a friendly voice
 I said wait (x2)
 The morning when you wake up
 You'll find your romance
 I said wait (x2)
 The morning when you wake up
 The sun will dance
