I'm waiting
For something to come through
I'm hoping
I can write a real sweet tune
No passion
(ooo ooo ooo)
No warmth in these words
(ooo ooo ooo)
I'm trying
(ooo ooo ooo)
But have nothing to offer
I'm waiting
With nothing to do
I'm waaaiiiting , just a waiting on you
Sadly, just like before
It's lifeless and soulless, and yeah,
I fall way short
No beauty
(ooo ooo ooo)
No sweet melody
(ooo ooo ooo)
No four-part barber shop harmony
I'm waiting
With nothing to do
I'm waaaiiiting, just a waiting on you
I'm waaaiiiting on you
I'm waaaiiiting on you, you
I'm waiting
With nothing to do
I'm waaaiiiting just a waiting on you
Waiting on you (hoo ooo ooo)
Waiting on you (hoo ooo ooo)
Waiting on you (hoo oooo oooo)
Waiting on you (hoo oooo oooo)
Waiting on you, hoo oooo oooo
Waiting on you, hoo oooo oooo
