And so they say they're leaving
|
While you sleep away the day
|
You go out every evening
|
Collecting waifs and strays
|
|
They follow their illusions
|
They don't know what to do
|
They need a clear direction
|
That's why they turn to you
|
|
You're pleading
|
Please don't leave me
|
Don't go from me so soon
|
I need to be found
|
For I'm a stray too
|
|
Don't go
|
Just wait until tomorrow
|
Just wait until tomorrow
|
Just wait until tomorrow
|
|
On the streets of Paris
|
On the streets of Rome
|
They find a home
|
In shadow or in coffee bars
|
Down the winding alleys
|
Through the brightly lit arcades
|
No matter where they are
|
|
In and out of life they wander
|
Little waifs and strays
|
They stay until you fall in love
|
That's when they slip away
|
|
In the dark you'll see
|
Those sad brown eyes come shining through
|
Your heart will melt
|
You felt the way they looked at you
|
|
Don't go
|
Just wait until tomorrow
|
Just wait until tomorrow
|
Just wait until tomorrow
|
|
You find you need someone
|
To love your days away
|
Just when your heart is crying out
|
Please stay
|
Don't go away
|
|
Just wait until tomorrow
|
Just wait until tomorrow
|
Just wait until tomorrow
|
Just wait until tomorrow
|
|
Yes it's true
|
I'm a stray too
|
