You're the only I'm seein
Gotta tell you how I'm feelin
Ooh woah, You're the only one I'm seein
Ooh woah, gotta tell you how I'm feelin
Ooh woah, You're the only one I'm seein
Ooh woah, gotta tell you how I'm feelin
I walk through the door, I wish I was yours, but I just walk out baby

To make you fall in love with me
But I
Don't know what to do

The song "Wait For You" is about a person who has fallen deeply in love with someone they can't have. The singer wishes they could confess their feelings to the person they admire, but they feel unsure if their feelings are reciprocated. The lyrics are filled with longing and frustration as the person feels like they can't do anything to make the person they desire to fall in love with them. The chorus, "Ooh woah, You're the only one I'm seein, gotta tell you how I'm feelin," highlights the singer's desire to be with this person and their hesitation to make a move.
The opening lines, "Woah, You're the only I'm seein, gotta tell you how I'm feelin," suggest that the person has tunnel vision towards the one they love. They can't see anyone else and are completely focused on their crush. The line, "I walk through the door, I wish I was yours, but I just walk out baby," suggests that the person has tried to take action before, but they couldn't do it. They are too scared to confess their feelings and face possible rejection.
The lyrics in the song reveal the complicated emotions that come with a one-sided love. The person feels unworthy and uncertain and struggles with the fear of not being accepted. The song's melody emphasizes the theme of longing and unrequited love with its slow, melancholic rhythm.
