Lyrics

Suzie Jane was seventeen I wasn't too much more
When we met upon a distant shore
I invited her to stay with me as long as it seemed right
Would she pack her things and come with me tonight?

Wait till mornin' wait till mornin'
Won't you wait till mornin comes?
Give me until then to let you know.
Wait till mornin' wait till Mornin'
Won't you wait till mornin comes?
Before you make me answer yes or no.

I asked her what could mornin' tell that evenin' didn't know?
Were there answers hidden in the sun?
She just looked at me with silent eyes as though I ought to know
Then whispered in a voice so soft and low.

Wait till mornin' wait till mornin'
Won't you wait till mornin comes?
Give me until then to let you know.
Wait till mornin' wait till Mornin'
Won't you wait till mornin comes?
Before you make me answer yes or no.

I told her that one never knows just what a new dawn brings
It may die or fly on wings of joy
That as far as I know now by then my life might reach its end
She gently smiled and asked me once again

Wait till mornin' wait till mornin'
Won't you wait till mornin comes?
Give me until then to let you know.
Wait till mornin' wait till Mornin'
Won't you wait till mornin comes?
Before you make me answer yes or no.

I slowly turned away from her and then in my canoe
Sailed away into the distant moon
As I paddle through the currents of the waters of my life
Though far away I still can hear her say.

REFRAIN ( twice)
