Can't Wait (Live at the Ritz, NYC, NY - April 1992)

Well, they told me

It would be OK

Yeah, they told me

They told me what to say

And they gave to me

Then they took away

Yeah, they gave it to me

It was powdered cocaine

And I just can't wait (you make me wait)

Any longer (don't make me wait)

I've got to leave today

What you doin' to me

You're messin' with my brain

What you doin' to me

I'm stuck in purple rain

And I just can't wait (you make me wait)

Any longer (don't make me wait)

I've got to leave today

"O God! Methinks it were a happy life

To be no better than a homely swain

To sit upon a hill, as I do now

To carve out dials quaintly, point by point

Thereby to see the minutes how they run

How many make the hour full complete

How many hours bring about the day

How many days will finish up the year

How many years a mortal man may live"

Please believe me

I was well on my way

Yeah, believe me

We thought that we would play

And I just can't wait (you make me wait)

Any longer (don't make me wait)

I've got to leave today

Don't fall for me

Don't wanna see you pray

Don't you wait for me

Just let it slip away

And I just can't wait (you make me wait)

Any longer (don't make me wait)

I've got to leave today

And I just can't wait (you make me wait)

Any longer (don't make me wait)

I've got to leave today

Thank you
