Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Do you remember how we lit up the room?

And how you felt before you met all my different moods

I know I drive you mad when I hit you with the truth

[Verse 2]

Don't let your mind think it's someone else, someone else

I need to do something for myself, oh

[Chorus]

Don't wait up

Don't wait up

Don't wait up

Don't wait up

Don't be afraid if it gets late

Yeah, you'll survive it's just one night

Don't wait up

Don't wait up, why

[Verse 3]

Won't you put down your phone and look me in the eye?

Got all dressed up for you but you seem so occupied

Maybe space is all it takes this time

To fix us

[Verse 4]

Don't let your mind think it's someone else, someone else

I need to do something for myself, oh

[Verse 5]

Don't wait up

Don't wait up

Don't wait up

Don't wait up

Don't be afraid, if it gets late

Yeah, you'll survive it's just one night

Don't wait up

Don't wait up, oh, ah, ah, ah

[Bridge]

First I kiss ya

Then I get mad at ya

'Cause I wish I'd

Be happy without ya

If I ditch you

Then maybe you'll understand

Then maybe you'll understand

[PreChorus]

I need to do something for myself, ooh

[Chorus]

Don't wait up

Don't wait up

Don't wait up

Don't wait up

Don't be afraid, if it gets late

Yeah, you'll survive it's just one night

Don't wait up

Don't wait up, oh, ah, ah, ah
