歌曲歌词

英文歌词

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

We made 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 great

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, love

Let's wait awhile before it's too late

Let's wait awhile, our love will be great

Let's wait awhile before we go too far

Let's wait awhile before it's too late

Let's wait awhile, our love will be great

Let's wait awhile before we go too far

I promise, I'll be worth the wait

中文歌词

我想告诉你一些

我认为 你应该知道的事

并不是我不爱你

只是 我们应该慢慢来

当我们彼此了解

你我都觉得更坚强时

到那时我们再谈谈

再等一会儿

在不算太晚之前

在没有走远之前

记得那个特别的夜晚

星光熠熠

我们第一次决定在一起

第一次许下诺言

要爱护对方，彼此分享，互相坦诚

但那晚

并不是特别美好

就再等一会儿 在不算太晚之前

我们的爱情会很美好

再等一会儿 在没有走远之前

我并不是真的懂 不将我的心意表明

是为了保留记忆以使我们的爱可以变得更美好

你说你会（永远爱我）

记得我同样说过

你不必担心我对你的爱意

（因为）我绝不会放手

就等一会儿

在不算太晚之前

你知道 爱情急不得

就等一会儿 在不算太晚之前

我们的爱情会很美好

再等一会儿 在没有走远之前

再等一会儿 在不算太晚之前

我们的爱情会更美好

再等一会儿
