Make Him Wait

verse 1 When he calls you, you don't have to answer right away Make him wait And when he small talks before he asks you on a date Make him wait When his Pontiac's in the driveway and his eyes are midnight blue Take a deep breath and do the opposite of what you wanna do Make him wait, by the phone At the door to meet your dad Before that first kiss he's gotta hold your hand You can't get it back when you give yourself away Yeah a boy's gonna run but a real man's gonna stay Girl make him wait Mmmm make him wait verse 2 And when he says that, it'd be easier if you just stayed the night Make him wait (mhmmm) You're gonna wanna, and you think that you just might But make him wait, oohhhhh Make him wait, by the phone At the door to meet your dad Before that first kiss he's gotta hold your hand You can't get it back when you give yourself away Yeah a boy's gonna run but a real man's gonna stay Girl make him wait Ohhhh make him wait BRIDGE They taught me that love is worth the weight in gold Like that ring on your hand, so When you find the one, the stayin' kind Then he won't mind... If you make him wait, in his tux Cellos sing you down the aisle Walk slow, take your time, while your daddy cries and your mama smiles And they're throwin' rice in the air and those tin cans roll away And you look into his eyes, and realize it was worth the while To make him wait Make him wait
