Waiting on You
Kingsley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll always be chasin'
But I'm sick of waitin'
Waiting on You
Don't let go
Your hands are so cold
I'll always be chasin'
Waiting on You
Lying on your bedroom floor
Naked, freezing cold
Maybe someday you'll feel like I do
Til then I'll be waiting
Waiting on You
Darling, the candles are burnin'
My heart is burstin', my stomach is turnin'
Waiting on You
Lying on your bedroom floor
Naked, freezing cold
Maybe someday you'll feel like I do
Til then I'll be waiting
Waiting on You
In "Waiting on You," Kingsley expresses feelings of frustration and desperation in a tumultuous romantic relationship. The opening line, "Darling, don't you go changin'," indicates that the singer wants their love interest to stay the same, while the rest of the lyrics suggest that their wait for reciprocated feelings is becoming unbearable. They say they'll always be chasing after this person but they're tired of waiting. The repeated refrain of "I'm sick of waiting/Waiting on You" emphasizes the idea that the singer feels like they've been putting in all the effort in this relationship and is growing weary of it.
The line "Don't let go/Your hands are so cold" suggests that the singer is physically close to their love interest, yet there is still a sense of distance and coldness between them. The next line - "Lying on your bedroom floor/Naked, freezing cold" - further emphasizes this feeling of unreciprocated desire and disconnection. The singer hopes that one day their love interest will feel the same way they do and that they won't have to wait anymore. The imagery of burning candles and a bursting heart creates a sense of urgency and vulnerability - the singer is putting themselves out there and waiting for their love interest to respond.

Darling, don't you go changin'
My love, please don't alter yourself or your feelings towards me
I'll always be chasin'
I will continue to pursue you
But I'm sick of waitin'
However, I am growing weary of waiting for your reciprocation
Waiting on You
I am still anticipating your response
Don't let go
Please do not release your grip from me
Your hands are so cold
Your touch lacks the warmth and affection I desire
Lying on your bedroom floor
I am laying on the floor of your room
Naked, freezing cold
I am naked and chilled to the bone
Maybe someday you'll feel like I do
Perhaps in the future, you will share my emotions
Til then I'll be waiting
But in the meantime, I will remain patiently waiting
Darling, the candles are burnin'
My love, the candles are still lit in hopes of our connection
My heart is burstin', my stomach is turnin'
My heart swells with longing, and my stomach aches with anticipation
