Don't Wait Up

Don't Wait Up - Diane Birch

I said to the river running through my heart

You got a long way to go until the waters part

Come the clouds rollin' in and all the people hide

They say run run baby to the sunny side

I said to the preacher standing at my door

Why you chasin' a rainbow when you got a star

He said you're gonna be sorry if you open that lid

I said it's too late daddy I already did

Oh oh don't wait up for me

Oh ooh 'cause you ain't gonna like what you see

No no no

Don't wait up don't wait up

I looked at the clock and it was quarter to twelve

I started counting the minutes to the freedom bell

I said the midnight hour is gonna take me home

And today's sorrow will be here no more

I said

Oh oh don't wait up for me

Oh ooh 'cause you ain't gonna like what you see

No no no

Oh no oh don't wait up for me

Oh ooh 'cause you ain't gonna like what you see

No no no

Oh oh don't wait up for me

Oh ooh 'cause you ain't gonna like what you see

No no no

Oh oh don't wait up for me

Oh ooh 'cause you ain't gonna like what you see

No no no

Don't wait up

Oh no don't wait up

Don't wait up

Oh don't wait up
