i can't wait

lyric + music by skylark

i’m late in the morning

the boss is throwin’ his hands all in the air

i’m given a warnin’

he says i’m losin’ my good position there

and i don’t even care

tell you what i did this mornin’

tell you what i did last night

looked into my baby’s eyes

and kissed and hugged and held him tight and

i can’t wait to spend another lazy night in my baby’s arms

i tell you that i can’t help it

i just can’t help it

i can’t wait to spend another lazy night in my baby’s arms

i tell you that i can’t help it

it won’t be long but

i can’t wait 

to be with my baby, no no

i can’t wait

to feel his lovin’ arms around me

it’s late in the evenin’

you know they’re jammin’ at parties all around

rockin’ and a-reelin’

and all my friends are goin’ out to paint the town

but i won’t be around

baby said he’s comin’ over

told me that he won’t be long

got to light a candle up

and be right here where i belong ‘cause

i can’t wait to spend another lazy night in my baby’s arms

i tell you that i can’t help it

i just can’t help it

i can’t wait to spend another lazy night in my baby’s arms

i tell you that i can’t help it

it won’t be long but

i can’t wait 

to be with my baby, no no

i can’t wait

another minute more
