Wait Awhile

Wait Awhile

Go tell it to the moon

Don’t give your heart away

Too soon

Save it for

Someday

When time has taken

A trip around the world

And brought you back

Upside down

Hanging by a limb

Where the sun will surely shine

And cast a shadow down the line

Of the shoe

Standing there

In front of you

That fits your sole

Front to back

And side to side

Like a magic carpet ride

That sweeps you up and off your feet

To touch the stars

And toe the ocean

Roaring in the wind

Yawn the sun and wake the moon

Clear the runway

But not too soon
