Lyrics

Time Won't Let Me

[Verse 1]

I can't wait forever even though you want me to

I can't wait forever just to know that you'll be true

[Chorus]

Time won't let me

Time won't let me

Time won't let me wait too long

[Verse 2]

Honey, can't you see I've waited too long?

Just to love you and to hold you in my hands

[Chorus]

Time won't let me

Time won't let me

Time won't let me

[Bridge]

Look, I can't wait forever even though you want me to

I can't wait forever just to know if you will be true

[Chorus]

Time won't let me

Time won't let me

Time won't let me wait that long

[Outro]

Time won't let me wait that long

Time won't let me wait that long

Let me wait that long

Let me wait that long
