I'LL WAIT
Wilder

as rec by Dinah Washington w Acc dir by Mitch Miller


If you happen to be late
For your usual Sunday date,
Don't worry,
Don't hurry,]
I'll wait!

Yes, I'll wait a long long time
For your wonderful sunny smile;
It's funny,
But honey
I'll wait!

You've been showin' up late ever since we've met,
Is it to impress me that you're hard to get?
But it seems you always make it,
That's the reason why I take it!

For surely I can well afford
Hanging around when my sweetie reward
Is you;
You know it's true!
I'll wait!

(humming)
(scat)

Surely I can well afford
Hanging around when my sweetie reward
Is you;
You know it's true!
I'll wait!
