[Verse 1: Carmen McRae]
Do nothing 'til 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 nothing 'til you hear from me
At least consider our romance
If you should take the word of others you've heard
Well, I don't stand a chance

[Bridge: Carmen McRae]
True, I've been seen with someone new
But does that mean that I'm untrue?
Though we're apart, the words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you

[Verse 2: Carmen McRae]
Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But pleasе do nothing 'til you hear from me
And you nevеr will, no, no, no

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge: Carmen McRae]
True, true, I have been seen with someone new
But does that mean that I'm untrue?
Though we're apart, the words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you
[Verse 3: Carmen McRae]
Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But please do nothing 'til you hear from me
And you never will, no, no, no

[Outro: Carmen McRae]
Do nothing 'til you hear from me
And you never will
Do absolutely nada 'til I give you the word
And you never will
I never will
