I'm Gonna Wait Lyrics

Betty and Johnny
They thought they were in love
Holding hands after shcool
But soon that wasn't enough
You know they lost all self-control
And romance turned to sin
Now thye just cry and wonder why
They can't start over again

I don't wanna go through that pain
There has got to be a better way

(chorus)
I'm gonna wait
I'm gonna wait
I'm gonna wait
Not gonna throw it all away
I'm gonna wait
I'm gonna wait
I'm gonna wait
Not gonne throw it all away
I'm gonna wait

Me and all my friends
Love to go to summer church camp
Sayin' hello to nature
And good-bye to mom and dad
Well the boys and girls started pairing up
And going out in the woods
This girl I know, she just looked at me
And wondered if we should

It's not worth it to me
To give up my purity

(chorus)

Well I talked with my youth leader
'Cause I knew he'd shoot me straight
He said believe me when I tell you, son
It's more than worth the wait

(chorus)
