Waiting For You

[Intro]
Ooh… ooh-wee!

[Verse 1]
Hello my love, can we get together tonight?
I know I promised not to call
And I know your schedule's a little tight
But I've got to see you now, someway, somehow, girl
I've been saving my love
I've been saving my love for no one but you

[Chorus]
(Waiting for you) I'm so doggone tired of waitin', baby
(Honey, 'cause we're overdue)
No more standin' back to back, lookin' for you, baby
(Baby, I'm waiting for you) oh baby

[Verse 2]
Now, you know the place, can you be here between 8 and 9?
We have to take advantage of, of our precious, precious time
I envy the man you livе with
'Cause he loves you whеnever he feels the need
Even though we lie to be together
I don't mind, let it last forever

[Chorus]
(Waiting for you) Oh, I'm…
(Honey, 'cause we're overdue)
I've been waitin' so doggone long, baby
(Baby, I'm waiting for you) tired, I'm so doggone tired
Oh baby, I'm waiting, I'm…
I've been waitin' so doggone long
Nobody should wait so long
(Waiting, waiting, waiting) I'm… waiting
(Waiting for you) I've been waitin' so doggone long
(Honey, 'cause we're overdue) so long
I don't need to wait no longer
(Baby, I'm waiting for you) waiting, baby
(Honey, 'cause we're overdue) it don't even make sense
I'm tired of me being kept in the dark, baby
(Baby, I'm waiting for you) I wanna see you face to face
And I don't wanna be scared of nobody seein' us together
(Honey, 'cause we're overdue)

[Interlude, spoken]
Oh baby, mmmmmm-hmm-hmm…
Oh baby, you know I called you last week
And you said you had something to do
But that don't mean a doggone thing
We're supposed to be lovers, I know were part-time lovers
But when I call, I want you to say:
"Hello, hello baby! I wanna see you tonight"
Yeah baby, and that old man you got
He must not be doing too much
'Cause you're in love with me
You know, baby, the next time I see ya
I'm gonna put my arms around you
I'ma run my hands through your curly hair
I'm gonna say "Baby, baby, baby, baby…
I love you, baby, sure enough I do"

[Outro]
(Waiting for you)
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
(Honey, 'cause we're overdue) I love you
(Baby, I'm waiting for you)
Sometimes we gotta be together all doggone night
(Honey, 'cause we're overdue)
I don't want this part-time loving
(Baby, I'm waiting for you) oh, baby, baby, oh baby…
(Honey, 'cause we're overdue) love you, baby…
