Don't you wait no, by the water, no don't You'll wait so hard, you'll wait so long You'll look so far, you'll look so wide You'll see a boat, but it won't be mine, no
Oh once you told me, told me you'd be mine And in no other pleasure find You went away, ah you lied then It's my lonely time, I never loved, I'm never gonna love again
Oh fair thee well, my pretty man Goodbye my old man, goodbye my friends Never mind the tears, never mind the love First you're gonna look, then I'll be gone
Oh don't you wait, no, by the water, no don't You'll wait so hard, you'll wait so wait so long You'll look so far, you'll look so wide You'll see a boat, but it won't it be mine, no
Oh no, don't you, don't wait, no Don't you wait by the water, no don't
