Darlin', wait for me, by your gate
In the evenin' light, ah I just can't wait
For I have to go, in the mornin', too soon
So, honey, don't you cry; I'll be back here soon.
So think of me, when you feel that moon
Oh it calls to me, as it calls to you.
Darlin' wait for me, I'll be home then
When the autumn leaves bring me back again
Darlin' wait for me, darlin' please wait
'Til the evenin' light, by your starlit gate.
So think of me, when you feel that moon
Oh it calls to me, as it calls to you.
That's all I ask of you, all I ask
'Til I hold your hand, there'll be peace at last.
Don't wait up 'til it's dark
All those lonely hours that we're apart.
Darlin', please
Darlin', please
Darlin', please
Darlin'... please.
