Wait Until Tomorrow Songtext
von Jimi Hendrix

Well, I′m standing here, freezing inside your golden garden
I got my ladder leaned up against your wall
Tonight's the night we planned to run away together
Come on, Dolly Mae, there′s no time to stall
But now you're telling me

I think we better wait 'til tomorrow
Hey, yeah, hey (I think we better wait ′til tomorrow)
Girl, what you′re talkin' ′bout?
(I think we better wait 'til tomorrow) yeah, yeah, yeah
Got to make sure it′s right, so until tomorrow, goodnight
Oh, what a drag

Oh, Dolly Mae, how can you hang me up this way?
On the phone you said you wanted to run off with me today
Now I'm standing here like some turned-down serenading fool
Hearing strange words stutter from the mixed-up mind of you
And you keep tellin′ me that, ah


I think we better wait 'til tomorrow
What are you talkin' ′bout?
(I think we better wait ′til tomorrow)
No, can't wait that long
(I think we better wait ′til tomorrow) oh no
Gotta make sure it's right until tomorrow, goodnight, oh no
Let′s see if I can talk to this girl a little bit here

Oh, Dolly Mae, girl, you must be insane
So unsure of yourself leaning from your unsure window pane
Do I see a silhouette of somebody pointing something from a tree?
Click bang, what a hang, your daddy just shot poor me
And I hear you say as I fade away

We don't have to wait ′til tomorrow (hey!)
We don't have to wait 'til tomorrow (what you say?)
(We don′t have to wait ′til tomorrow)
It must have been right, so forever, goodnight, listen at you
(We don't have to wait ′til tomorrow)
Ah! Do I have to wait? Don't have to wait?
(We don′t have to wait 'til tomorrow)
It′s a drag on my part


(We don't have to wait 'til tomorrow)
Don′t have to wait, uh, hmm! Oh, no!
(We don′t have to wait 'til tomorrow)
Don′t have to wait, don't have to wait, yeah!
(We don′t have to wait 'til tomorrow)
Don′t have to wait, don't have to wait
(We don't have to wait ′til tomorrow) oh, no
I won′t be around tomorrow, yeah!

(We don't have to wait ′til tomorrow)
Don't have to wait
(We don′t have to wait 'til tomorrow)
Goodbye, bye, bye!
(We don′t have to wait 'til tomorrow)
Oh, what a mix up
Oh, you gotta be crazy, hey, ow!
Don't have to wait ′til tomorrow
