Just sixty seconds of your time To listen to this plea of mine Don't let your heart be made of stone Just say the past is bygone Wait a minute before you leave me Hold on before you go I know that I was such a fool I used your heart just like a tool I'll be your puppet on a string (puppet on a string) And, baby, I'll do anything Turn around Don't walk out that door I want you, baby, more than before Wait a minute before you leave me Hold on before you go Oh, oh, wait a minute, baby (Wait a minute before you leave me) Hold on (Hold on before you go) Wait a minute, baby (Wait a minute before you leave me) Hold on (Hold on before you go) If I must beg to keep you by my side I'm not ashamed to give up my pride Wait a minute before you leave me Hold on before you go I left you standing all alone You reached for me and I was gone In other words, I was unwise And for this I apologize Baby, please, please, hurry Say you forgive me I'm beginning to worry Wait a minute before you leave me Hold on before you go Oh wait a minute, baby, hold on Wait a minute, baby, hold on I didn't mean to hurt you, oh, hold on, baby Wait, wait, wait a minute, baby Hold on before you go
