Lets Wait Awhile - Lyrics by Janet Jackson

There's something i want to tell you

There's something i think that you should know

It's not that i shouldn't really love you

Let's take it slow



When we get to know each other

And we're both feeling much stronger

Then let's try to talk it over

Let's wait awhile longer



Let's wait awhile before it's too late

Let's wait awhile before we go too far



Remember that special night

When all of the stars where shining bright

We made our first endeavor

To stay together



Remember our very first promise

To love, to share, and be real honest

But on that very first night

It wasn't quite right



Let's wait awhile before it's too late

Let's wait awhile, our love will be there

Let's wait awhile before we go too far



I didn't really know not to let all my feelings show

To save some for later so our love can be greater

You said you would always love me

Remember i said the same thing too

You don't have to be frightened with my love

Because i'll never give up on you

Let's wait awhile, awhile before it's too late

You know you can't rush love



Let's just take our time

With love so good, we shouldn't rush it

We need to slow it down
