I'll Wait For You - Original - Ruth Brown

Along about the evening

I feel so blue

And though my heart is grieving

I’ll wait for you

I’m writing you a letter

'Cause our love’s so true

Although I’m sad and lonely

I’ll wait for you

When the moon was high

And the lights were low

That’s the time when you and I Said our love would grow

If you ever get the notion

You’ll miss me too

Make it in a hurry

I’ll wait for you

'Round 'bout the midnight

I miss you so So baby, won’t you do right

I’ll wait for you

You need my arms around you

To hold you tight

I’ll give you all my lovin'

Both day and night

When the moon is high

And the lights are low

That’s the time when you and I Know our love will grow

If you ever get the notion

You’ll miss me too

Just make it in a hurry

I’ll wait for you
