Love Will Wait Lyrics - Singles - Carmen Rasmusen

He had one hand on the wheel 

Of his two door Chevy Cavalier 

And the other one was runnin' 

Through the waves of her sandy hair 

It was well past twelve 

When they pulled into her parents drive 

She didn't think anyone was watchin' 

When she kissed him goodnight, busted 

Her momma told her 

She was grounded for a year 

Her daddy said that boy 

Ain't welcome around here 

She ran up to her room screamin' down those stairs 

You can say what you wanna say 

Lock me up, throw the key away 

But if this is really fate then love will wait, love will wait 

Two months later her momma 

Finally let her off the hook 

She said, I'm headin' uptown 

To return a few library books 

But she climbed in the Cavalier 

Sittin' at the Amoco station 

He told her time don't matter 

Love was worth the waitin', a love sweet, oh yeah 

Her momma told her 

She was grounded for a year 

Her daddy said that boy 

Ain't welcome around here 

She ran up to her room screamin' down those stairs 

You can say what you wanna say 

Lock me up, throw the key away 

But if this is really fate then love will wait, oh yeah 

Now there's a little white house 

On the edge of a country lake 

And daddy's workin' on that 

Rusty old Chevy in the driveway 

The kids are playin' with the dog 

Throwin' frisbee in the front yard 

And mama's sittin' on that front porch 

Swayin', starin' at that car where it all started 

Her momma told her 

She was grounded for a year 

Her daddy said that boy 

Ain't welcome around here 

She ran up to her room screamin' down those stairs 

You can say what you wanna say 

Lock me up, throw the key away 

But if this is really fate then fate's gonna have it's way, love will wait 

You can try to step in between 

Love and destiny but what will be will be 

Love will wait, oh yeah, love will wait
