Let's Wait A Little Longer Lyrics by Dottie West
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
(Billy Sherrill - Curly Putman)

Well, I can see you are not happy the way you've been actin'
And I think you'd like to be free
Well, I know he's a good man but I know that you can be
A whole lot happier with me.

In your eyes there's a yearnin' and inside you're a burnin'
And I'm the one who'll put out the flame
So let's get together like birds of a feather
And we'll let the love take the blame.

But right now I don't think that I can leave him
For lately he's been so good to me
And there might be one small chance that we could make it
So let's wait a little longer then we'll see.

But the way I can make you forget him 'cause I'll take you
To places that you've never been
Oh, we'll make all the night spots, the dim and the bright spots
And then we'll forget where we've been.

Well, we'll walk sunny beaches and taste Georgia peaches
And swing from Maine to Mexico
Well, if you'll come along we can make life a song
And you won't be tied down anymore.

But right now I don't think that I can leave him
Lately he's been so good to me
And there might be one small chance that things could work out
So let's wait a little longer then we'll see...
