And I wonder why? Baby can you make it clear
'cause your acting like you want to spent the night
And the way I'm feeling gurl I juss might
Let you stay wit me
And if you act right i might
Let you lay wit me
Half of the night if your thinking wat i'm thinking
Then you know its time
[Chorus]
I can't wait 'till we all alone
I can't wait 'till we get it on
I can't wait 'cause its been too long
can't wait
Gurl its getting late
Cause I've had enough
Ohh baby
I know that I just can't wait no more
Cause girl am goin' crazy
baby I can't wait no more
I want to give your body what's waiting for
I know I got to have you right now (right now) right now
Baby cause I jus can't wait
I got a throw back and some boxers you can wear
or you can do like me
and sleep in nothing I don't care
I'll do whatever it takes to make you comfortable
the way you look is so incredible
I need to
Let you stay wit me
And if you act right I might
Let you lay wit me
'cause I (Cuz I) I've been watchin you watchin me
Half of the night if your thinking wat i'm thinking
Then you know its time
[Chorus]
I can't wait 'till we all alone

[Chorus]
I can't wait 'till we all alone

In Avant's song "Can't Wait," the singer is addressing a woman who he has been watching all night during a party. The party has now ended, but she's still there, and he wonders why. He then questions whether she wants to spend the night with him because he is feeling a connection with her. He offers that if she behaves well, she can stay with him, and he might even allow her to sleep with him. He reveals his desires and how he needs to have her right now because he is falling for her. He offers to make her comfortable by giving her a t-shirt of his to wear, or she can sleep naked, and he promises to do anything, including risking his early morning business plans, to be with her. In conclusion, the song portrays a man who is captivated by a beautiful lady, and he can't wait to have her all to himself.

The party's over and your still here
The celebration has ended, yet you're still present
And I wonder why? Baby can you make it clear
I am unsure of your intentions. Can you explain them?
'cause your acting like you want to spent the night
Your behavior suggests that you desire to stay over
And the way I'm feeling gurl I juss might
Following how I feel, I may allow it to happen
Let you stay wit me
I may permit you to stay with me
And if you act right i might
Your behavior could affect my decision to let you stay
Let you lay wit me
You could possibly share my bed
'cause I (Cuz I) I've been watchin you watchin me
I have observed you monitoring me
Half of the night if your thinking wat i'm thinking
After half of the evening, if you are considering the same as me
Then you know its time
You are aware that it is appropriate
I can't wait 'till we all alone
I am eagerly awaiting the moment when we will be alone
I can't wait 'till we get it on
I am looking forward to having sexual intercourse with you
I can't wait 'cause its been too long
It has been exceptionally long since I have had sexual intimacy
Gurl its getting late
Time is passing us by
Cause I've had enough
I am tired of waiting
Ohh baby
Intense emotion of excitement or desire
I know that I just can't wait no more
I am sure that I cannot delay any longer
Cause girl am goin' crazy
Your absence is driving me insane
baby I can't wait no more
I am unable to wait any longer
I want to give your body what's waiting for
I wish to provide your body with the satisfaction it requires
I know I got to have you right now (right now) right now
I must have you immediately
Girl you got me breakin plans that I need to keep (I do)
You are causing me to cancel commitments that I am obliged to attend
got an early day tomorrow so I need to be sleepin'
As I have an early start tomorrow, I need to rest
but I don't mind (ohh) cause being with you is like am in a dream
But it does not bother me since being with you feels surreal
and am not gon' wait
I will not delay any longer
baby 'cause I just can't wait
I cannot postpone taking action any longer
