And so they say they're leaving
While you sleep away the day
You go out every evening
Collecting waifs and strays
They follow their illusions
They don't know what to do
They need a clear direction
That's why they turn to you
You're pleading, please don't leave me
Don't go from me so soon
I need to be found
For I'm astray too
Don't go
Just wait until tomorrow
Just wait until tomorrow
On the streets of Paris
On the streets of Rome
They find a home
In shadow or in coffee bars
Down the winding alleys
Through the brightly lit arcades
No matter where they are
In and out of life, they wander
Little waifs and strays
They stay until you fall in love
That's when they slip away
In the dark you'll see
Those sad brown eyes come shining through
Your heart will melt
You felt the way they looked at you
Don't go
Just wait until tomorrow
Just wait until tomorrow
You find you need someone
To love your days away
Just when your heart is crying out
Please stay, don't go away
Just wait until tomorrow
Just wait until tomorrow
Yes, it's true
I'm a stray too
Yes, it's true
I'm a stray too
Yes, it's true
I'm a stray too
Yes, it's true
I'm a stray too
