Lou Reed — Wait

[Verse 1] (Disgrace) Wait I know I shouldn't, but we'll wait (Such a pretty face) I know the time is getting late (Your name is such a waste) And here is what you hesitate (Of such a pretty face) But still I really wish that you'd wait (Your name is such a waste) Although the passion might abate (Of such a pretty face) And find you in another state (And it was such a disgrace) That will seem just as a mistake (It was such a waste) Oh baby, I really think that I oughta wait (Of such a pretty face) [Verse 2] (It was such a waste) Wait I really wouldn't want your hate (Of such a pretty face) Certainly not after like late (And it was such a waste) You wanna give not only take (Of such a pretty face) I know propriety is such a waste (It was such a disgrace) But then it says you really have to wait (Such a pretty face) Considering the present state (And it was such a waste) Don't change my mind at this late date ([?] it was such a waste) Oh baby, don't you think you oughta wait (Of such a pretty face) [Verse 3] Wait Oh, now baby, how I wish you'd wait I really wish you'd hesitate Oh, baby, baby please why don't you wait Oh, how I really wish that you would wait Oh, how I wish you'd hesitate But better late than never, now wait Baby how I wish that you'd wait Don't [?] my mind, now here's the date I really wouldn't want you to hate Then someone who would think I"m your date I really really wish that you would wait Oh baby baby then you'd wait
