What Are You Waiting For

[Verse 1]
I see you from across the room
I thought I wouldn't feel a thing
I think it's getting colder now
I wanna get close to you
I swear that we've been here before
I guess you didn't notice me
But you do now
Oh, you do now

[Chorus]
What are you waitin' for?
What are you waitin' for?
'Cause I've been standing here
Oh, I've been standing here
What are you waitin' for?
What are you waitin' for?
'Cause I've been standing here
It's never been so clear

[Verse 2]
I get it if you wanna wait, 'cause I'll stay in my place
I ain't got nowhere to go, I got plenty time to waste
I think I've fallen in love, but that's not enough
If you don't feel the same, I guess I'll leave you alone, but
It's time and time again, babe, you're never listenin', babe
If there's no promises made, I don't ever wanna fall in love
I don't ever wanna mess it up, we're runnin' out of luck

[Chorus]
What are you waitin' for? (For)
What are you waitin' for? (For)
'Cause I've been standing here
Oh, I've been standing here
What are you waitin' for? (Why do you wait? Why do you wait?)
What are you waitin' for? (Why do you wait? Why do you wait?)
'Cause I've been standing here
It's never been so clear

[Post-Chorus]
Why do you wait? Why do you wait?
Why do you wait? Why do you wait?
Why do you wait? Why do you wait?
Why do you wait? Why do you wait?

[Bridge]
Tell me to stay, you're wastin' my time
Every day I'm waitin' in line
Standing in place, 'cause, baby, that's all I know
Why do you wait? Just tell me

[Chorus]
What are you waitin' for?
What are you waitin' for?
'Cause I've been standing here
Oh, I've been standing here
What are you waitin' for? (Why do you wait? Why do you wait?)
What are you waitin' for? (Why do you wait? Why do you wait?)
'Cause I've been standing here
Oh, I've been standing here, oh
