(david lee murphy) Lookin' at the bare spot on the bedroom wall Brought home the honest truth to me The picture hangin' there was just another treasure I had lost so foolishly It took all this to realize the talks we had Meant she was tired of playin' And now i see she needed more Of what i wasn't doin' or sayin' So just don't wait around 'til she's leavin' To show her just how much she really means Just don't wait around 'til she's leavin' To give the kind of love a lady needs Promises don't push aside The fact that i had taken her for granted Just a touch to let her know how much i really cared Was all she wanted But it's too late to change her mind When you're just a memory behind her So take her in your arms and make her see She's the one you'll want forever So just don't wait around 'til she's leavin' To show her just how much she really means Just don't wait around 'til she's leavin' To give the kind of love a lady needs Hold her And she'll be satisfied She needs Lovin' all the time So just don't wait around 'til she's leavin' To show her just how much she really means Just don't wait around 'til she's leavin' To give the kind of love a lady needs So just don't wait around 'til she's leavin' To show her just how much she really means Just don't wait around 'til she's leavin' To give the kind of love a lady needs So just don't wait around 'til she's leavin'
