Verse
I gotta say been on my mind all day
I wanna pick up the phone
But i dont know
What to tell, ain't wanna fake oh yea
I gotta say u ain't been the same these days
Pre-hook
No no, no no
Leavin alone, leavin me on my own yea
No no, no no
For reasons unknown, girl u dont belong here
Chorus
Feels like eight (i've been waiting all night)
Feels like eight (going on and on)
Feels like eight (ain't waiting till midnight)
Forever waiting for you to come make me feel allright
Verse
I gotta say been on my mind all day
Boo I'm done doin' these games
You trying to keep me away
From all I'm trying to be
You might think that it's allright, ya ain't right
4 hours till midnight, but let's say
This is your red light, I won’t wait
For the day that you’ll decide, be by my side
Pre-hook
No no, no no
If you coming home, then please just don’t
No no, no no
Now you’re on your own, girl u don't belong here
Chorus
Feels like eight (i've been waiting all night)
Feels like eight (going on and on)
Feels like eight (ain't waiting till midnight)
Forever waiting for you to come make me feel allright
