"Save It for Me" is a song written by Bob Gaudio and Bob Crewe. A song recorded in 1964 by The Four Seasons for their Rag Doll album, it was released as the follow-up record to the album's title song, which had hit the #1 position on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in July 1964. "Save It for Me" was also a success for the quartet, reaching the #10 position on the Billboard singles chart.[3] It featured arrangement work by Denny Randell, who would later go on to become a songwriter for the group.[4] Billboard described the song as a "medium tempo ballad, featuring ethereal organ support," calling it a "smasheroo."[5] Cash Box said it has "a wild 'Telstar' instrumentation" and "quite a sound.

Don't let your love go astray 
(Save it for me) 
Don't give your sweet kiss away 
(Save it for me) 
I know you're feeling blue 
'Cause I feel blue like you 
I'll be strong as you are and wait just as long as you 

Don't waste that look i adore 
(Save it for me) 
Just wait a little bit more 
(Save it for me) 
I know that you must cry 

Cry baby so do i 
Just sit tight and leave on your light 
'Cause I'm coming home to your arms 
Oh baby I'm coming home to your arms 

Save it for me 
Save it for me 
I know that you must cry 
Cry baby so do I 
I'll be strong as you are and wait just as long as you 

Save it for me 
Save it for me
