Steve Greenberg - Don't Wait Up lyrics

[Verse 1] I said to the river running thru 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 sunnyside [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] Oh, oh, don't wait up for me Oh, oh, 'cause you ain't gonna like what you see No no no Don't wait up Don't wait up [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus]
