Wait A Minute Before You Leave Me

Just sixty seconds of your time

To listen to this plea of mine

Don't let your heart be made of stone

(Be made of stone)

Just say the past is bygone

Wait a minute (wait)

Before you leave me (hold on)

Hold on before you go



I know that I was such a fool

I used your heart just like a tool

I'll be your puppet on a string

(Puppet on a string)

And baby, I'll do anything



Turn around

Don't walk out that door

I want you, baby, more than before

Wait a minute (wait)

Before you leave me (hold on)

Hold on before you go



Oh, oh, wait a minute, baby

(Wait a minute before you leave me)

Hold on (hold on before you go)

Wait a minute, baby

(Wait a minute before you leave me)

Hold on (hold on before you go)



If I must beg to keep you by my side

I'm not ashamed to give up my pride

Wait a minute (wait)

Before you leave me (hold on)

Hold on before you go



I left you standing all alone

You reached for me and I was gone

In other words, I was unwise

(I was unwise)

And for this I apologize



Baby, please, please hurry

Say you'll forgive me

I'm beginning to worry

Wait a minute (wait)

Before you leave me (hold on)

Hold on before you go



Oh, wait a minute, baby

(Wait a minute before you leave me)

Hold on (hold on before you go)

Wait a minute, baby

(Wait a minute before you leave me)

Hold on (hold on before you go)

I didn't mean to hurt you

(Wait a minute before you leave me)

Oh, hold on, baby (hold on before you go)

Wait, wait, wait a minute, baby

Hold on before you go
