It was dark and cool
She said I didn't know all the rules
She made her mind up fast
She took a walk and she didn't come back
Girls can't wait...
Everyone should know
Life ain't no picture show
You'll lose your place in line
You'll end up in the life's back row (?)
Girls can't wait
Now I'm all alone
Four empty walls and a telephone
All I know right now is girls can't wait...
I'm just marking time
I hold court with some friends of mine
I think I love that girl
I'm thinking that I could change her mind
Girls can't wait...Like a vision standin' there,
Lips poutin', a come-on stare,
Come on -- I thought I had your number,
Workin' up an appetite for love,
Don't let me die of hunger,
Ain't ya got no heart,
No compassion for your lover,
When I get you on the floor, I find it's just another,
*Hesitation dance –
you got me in a stone-cold trance
Hesitation dance
Go out and find another fool
For your game of chance*
Shut the door, draw the blinds,
Yeah baby gonna draw the lines,
Come on, I know your heart's on fire,
How could anyone who plays the part
And tastes so sweet wanna hide her heart away,
You're my main desire --
Ain't you got no heart --
No compassion for your lover,
When I get you on the floor,
I find it's just another
( * Repeat)
