Do Nothin' Till You Hear From Me Lyrics - Mingus Revisited - Charles Mingus

Someone told someone and someone told you 

But they wouldn't hurt you, not much 

Since everyone spread the story 

With his own little personal touch 

Do nothin' till you hear from me 

Pay no attention to what's said 

Why people tear the seam of anyone's dream 

Is over my head 

Do nothin' till you hear from me 

At least consider our romance 

If you should take the word of others you've heard 

I haven't a chance 

True I've been seen with someone new 

But does that mean that I'm untrue 

When we're apart the words in my heart 

Reveal how I feel about you 

Some kiss may cloud my memory 

And other arms may hold a thrill 

But please do nothin' till you hear it from me 

And you never will 

Do nothin' till you hear from me 

Do nothin' till you hear from me 

Pay no attention to what's said 

Why people tear the seam of anyone's dream 

Is over my head 

Do nothin' till you hear from me 

At least consider our romance 

If you should take the word of others you've heard 

I haven't a chance 

True I've been seen with someone new 

But does that mean that I'm untrue 

When we're apart the words in my heart 

Reveal how I feel about you 

Some kiss may cloud my memory 

And other arms may hold a thrill 

But please do nothin' till you hear it from me 

And you never will
