Don't wait for me

DON’T WAIT FOR ME (E A D G B E, capo 6)

Don’t wait for me, I’m still learning. Don’t hold your breath, I’m returning.

Don’t close your eyes, I need light here. Hold out your arms, I am so near.

 

Boats on the sea disappear at night. I wonder where they go. Could we ever find a better place to hide? I might try.

I might try.

 

Don’t wait for me, I’m still learning. Don’t hold your breath, I’m returning.

Don’t close your eyes, I might disappear. Hold out your arms, the coast is so clear.

 

Worms in the grass have got the right idea. But word travels fast. Faster than we realise. I want to lie here all night.

I want to lie here all night.

 

I want to lie here all night. I want to lie by your side. I want to lie here all night.

 

Don’t wait for me, I’m still learning. Don’t hold your breath, I’m returning.

Don’t close your eyes, they remind me how close I am when you’re beside me.
