"Love Won't Wait" is a song by English singer Gary Barlow from his debut studio album "Open Road". It was released as the second single from the album on 25 April 1997 by BMG and RCA Records. The song was written by Madonna and Shep Pettibone, and was an unreleased demo from her "Bedtime Stories" (1994) studio sessions. Barlow came by the demo in 1997, while looking to record more songs for "Open Road". He changed the lyrics to represent a male point of view rather than Madonna's, and recorded the track with Stephen Lipson as producer.
