Waiting

I'm waiting for something to happen
And it seems like it might be a while
I'm waiting for something to happen
But it seems that I'm not your style
You go for all of the wrong things
And I think that I'm all of the right
Yes, you look for all that love brings
Don't you know it will be a long night

You're waiting for something to happen
Sitting on the edge of your seat
You're waiting for something to happen
That something that makes you complete
You manage to look right through me
In your quest to follow your heart
You're right that I may not be perfect
But baby, I sure am a start

We're waiting for something to happen
Not sure as to what it might be
We're waiting for something to happen
And I sure hope that something is me
Yes, it's true that I may not be perfect
But honey, I am what I am
Yes, I'm far from your manna from heaven
But I'm doing the best that I can
