She was "17" Beauty queen I met her in a magazine Heart of fire Loves desire Reachin' out Higher, higher Runaway One more day A broken hearted child at play I pray for you Baby blue In the name of love I reach for you In the darkness comes The evil of the night Think about it You better wait Stop yourself before you fall You better wait Stop before you lose it all Somewhere there's love Oh somewhere, somewhere Precious girl Little pearl Temptation is a lonely world Eyes deceive They believe In everything they wanna see, yeah And the neon lights Reflect your life Only you know Where you hide baby You better wait Stop yourself before you fall You better wait Stop before you lose it all 'Cause somewhere there's love You better wait Stop before you start Don't look back Don't lose heart (guitar solo) Don't look Don't look Don't look back baby Ah...... Don't Ah...... Don't look Don't look Don't look back baby --- You Better Wait - Steve Perry
