Lyrics
Here’s that man again waiting at your garden gate
With a bouquet, don’t you send me away
Have a little pity, Kate
Poor me, can’t you see
I’m in an awful state?
Chorus
How much longer must I wait, Kate
Till you let me know my fate, Kate?
The sun’s down, the moon’s out
There’s no one in sight
My questions need answers
Tonight is the night
Nine o’clock we had a date, Kate
I’ve been here since half-past eight, Kate
I came a little bit early, I couldn’t wait
Have I come too early, too late?
