[Verse 1]
Don't say yes, don’t say maybe
Don't say nothin' ’til you hear from me
I know him, he's driving you crazy
Tell him I said to let you be
[Chorus]
'Cause you gotta wait
'Til I'm home again
'Til I'm standing by your side
(Darling, will you wait) Hold on
('Til I’m home again?) Hold on
I can keep you satisfied
[Verse 2]
If you try, you can take it
I know you, girl, I know you can
If you hold on, you can make it
Tell him nice, but make him understand
[Chorus]
That you gotta wait (Wait)
’Til I'm home again (I’ll be coming home)
'Til I'm standing by your side
(Darling, will you wait) Hold on
('Til I’m home again?) Hold on
I can keep you satisfied
[Verse 3]
I know it's hard when I'm not near you
I know what it's like to live alone
When you cry, I can hear you
I'm not really far from home
[Chorus]
So you gotta wait (Wait)
'Til I'm home again (I'll be coming home)
'Til I'm standing by your side
(Darling, will you wait) Hold on
('Til I'm home again?) Hold on
I can keep you satisfied
[Outro]
(Wait) Hold on
(Wait) Hold on
(Darling, will you wait?) Hold on
(Wait) Hold on
